Saigon 1973-1975: Not the Usual War Stories In-Person
Many people believe the Vietnam War ended when the United States military left, but that is only partially true. Between the signing of the Paris Peace Accords on January 28, 1973, and the fall of Saigon on April 30, 1975, fighting between North and South Vietnam continued while several thousand American civilians, including families with young children, lived and worked in Vietnam. Karen Kaiser and Kat Fitzpatrick were among them.
Using images and personal stories—some harrowing, some humorous—Karen and Kat share their real-life experiences in Saigon during the last days of the Vietnam War. You will learn why they were invited into a critical war zone, the nature of a super-secret propaganda radio station, what challenges they faced, and how they made it out in time.
