This document provides a detailed account of the final days of U.S. involvement in the Vietnam War, focusing on the execution of Operation FREQUENT WIND, the largest aerial evacuation in history. It describes how Tan Son Nhut Air Base became the central hub for airlift operations despite repeated rocket attacks, detailing how evacuation flights transitioned from fixed-wing aircraft like the C-130 and C-141 to helicopters as enemy forces closed in. The report highlights critical leadership roles played by Major General Homer Smith, Lieutenant Colonel Richard Bean, and Brigadier General Richard Carey, who managed the logistics of moving thousands of personnel, including U.S. citizens, South Vietnamese allies, and third-country nationals. It also examines the final extraction from the U.S. Embassy rooftop, the strategic use of aircraft carriers such as the USS Midway for helicopter recovery, and the intense ground security efforts by Marine forces to maintain order amid collapsing defenses. The study concludes with a reflection on the operational success of the evacuation, the challenges faced in coordinating air and sea routes, and the broader implications of the withdrawal for U.S. military strategy.
