Vietnam war
Vietnam is commemorating the 40th anniversary of the fall of Saigon. The
withdrawal of U-S troops from the city marked the end of the Vietnam War
and the more-than-decade-long U.S. involvement in Vietnam. A
military parade took place Thursday in Ho Chi Minh City, which was known as
Saigon before being named after the leader of North Vietnam upon
reunification. Some 6-thousand children, women, veterans and soldiers
marched towards the Presidential Palace reenacting when North Vietnamese
tanks crash through the gates on April 30th in 1975.
