"We missed that last helicopter taking the Vietnamese people out of Saigon, from the US Embassy roof on the night of April 29, 1975. Fearful and hopeless, my Mom tried to get her 7 small children out of the embassy, it was difficult to see because of all the tear gas. People were running in all directions, screaming and stepping on each other. Clothes, money and valuables were scattered on the ground, and no one bothered to stop. I relive that moment every time I look at that famous picture."
