Approximately 5,000 Americans remained with roughly 24 hours to get out. Their South Vietnamese allies, co-workers, and friends faced certain imprisonment and possible death if they remained behind, yet there was no official evacuation plan in place. Still, over the last days in Vietnam, with the clock ticking and the city under fire, 135,000 South Vietnamese managed to escape with help from a number of heroic Americans who took matters into their own hands, engaging in unsanctioned and often makeshift operations in a desperate effort to save as many people as possible.* * *Voir aussi les autres extraits suivants :"A Sea of Humanity…" - A Clip from "Last Days in Vietnam"News footage shows the panic permeating South Vietnam leading up to the Fall of Saigon in April, 1975.A Terrible Moral Dilemma - A Clip from "Last Days in Vietnam"Col.
