Wouldn’t happen today. This administration would rather kill our soldiers then save people

Lies. The ones they sent off the side were non repairable aboard ship. So they dumped them to make room for new equipment

This is the fall of Saigon. Captain Larry Chambers was the first African-American Captain of an aircraft carrier in the United States Navy and he just recently took over command in the theater of the USS Midway. His standing orders were to provide air cover for the evacuation. When it became clear that air cover was no longer needed, he ordered the helicopters pushed into the ocean and allowed a small private Cessna to land on the aircraft carrier. Larry Chambers would later recall that when he made the decision to violate standing orders and push all the military equipment into the ocean that he was confident that he was going to face a court-martial, but felt it was the right thing to do at the time.

false. it was because it was too expensive for them to return and maintain all the aircraft they didn't need anymore after the war

Cause ya know.... why not fly the helicopter for 10 mins while the incoming plane landed and then land the helicopter in a more optimized location once it was safe to do so.....

Most of them were South Vietnamese assets - not US Military property.
