Operation Babylift: Saving Vietnamese orphans
Ảnh đặc biệt nhắc lại một sự kiện đáng nhớ trước ngày di tản.
In 1975, at the end of the Vietnam War, a very unusual mercy mission was launched. Dubbed 'Operation Babylift', it was designed to take hundreds of Vietnamese babies and children away from the fighting to homes in the West.
Australian historian Ian W. Shaw has written about Operation Babylift, the women who drove it.
Rosemary Taylor and Margaret Mose were two former nuns from Adelaide who spent eight years in Vietnam during the war.
The pair developed a complex of nurseries to house war orphans and street children, and helped find adoptive families overseas for the children.
