Repost 2012: The Fall Of Saigon April 30, 1975: 37th (45th) Remembrance

Leaving for the NC PATCON tomorrow and won't be back until late on the 30th, so I will put up my yearly, heart felt post. After eight years, (in-country) the saddest day of my life. 

My boss and good friend, Bob Goodpaster took this of me while I was covering  a demonstration.  May he RIP and also the American, VNCH and allied troops   who breathed their last here.   TET, Little Saigon, Westminster, California 1976/77?
