I have a question...
My grandfather was a Medic at Saigon Embassy pulling people out. Theres a photo of him in time Magazine with a MP running out. I'm wondering if you know of anyone else there?
He died in 1989, 3 months before I was born and i always wanted to know more.
His name was Lee Harwood Reeves Sr. Served in the marines, retired, then reenlisted into the Army as a Medic when Vietnam started.

Sad that these men had to spend their best years quite literally for nothing, watching their friends die for nothing, all in service of a ruthless machine meant to oppress other countries. Glad that they were finally expelled from Vietnam by NVA/VC troops.
