The Fall of Saigon is the final episode of the multi-award-winning 1983 series Vietnam: A Television History. Told in news clips and recollections by Vietnamese and Americans (including Gerald R. Ford and Henry Kissinger), the hour begins with the January 1973 peace treaty. It amounted to a death sentence for South Vietnam, says a South Vietnamese colonel. And when the end came, it was chaotic. We really just cut and ran, recalls U.S. aide William LeGro.
