File picture taken on April 30, 1975 by MGySgt John Valdez, The Last US Marine In Saigon, of an aerial view of the parking lot of the US Embassy in Saigon. Down left is an "H" painted on the parking lot for helicopters to land. According to Valdez, at the time the picture was taken, helicopters stopped landing to evacuate people but Vietnamese just sat there, perhaps hoping some more would show.
