A fascinating look at the bureaucratic indecision regarding the evacuation of Saigon in the wake of the north's invasion of the south after Nixon resigned, the black ops that initially got it going, and the heroic efforts of Marine chopper pilots, embassy personnel, and naval personnel once the big push got underway to evacuate our Vietnamese friends and our own forces that were left in Saigon. No political axes were ground in this unique tale that hasn't been completely told to the masses until now.

Admiral(?) on a carrier, "We need to rest these chopper pilots, they've been flying 18-23 hours straight", Marine captain(?), "Marine pilots don't need rest, sir!"
