Excerpts from the Book
Volunteers at the Saigon orphanages, in an effort that would come to be known as ‘Operation Babylift,’ were desperately trying to evaluate as many children as possible before the city fell. They would, as history played itself out, have less than the month of April to carry out this task, as far as it could be carried out, and then, ironically, their chance to save children would end with the end of the war.
Babylift occurred in a time when our nation, wounded in spirit, offered a heroic effort to save the smallest victims of a war that had no victory, and that resulted in no real peace.
