When the US government set up a Vietnamese refugee camp on field 2 Eglin AFB my father would go pick up few or more, check them out for an afternoon, and take them to the beach or something.
He meet one young man, mid twenties, that was in the Vietnamese Air force. He liked him, so he decided to sponsor him. He moved into the house and lived with my family for several years.
He got a job, went to college and became a citizen. A success story.

I was expecting more of the tactical situation between the N. and S. Vietnamese forces. It was more about the evacuation of the last Americans and Vietnamese.
It was very good.
