- Self - Army Captain: It was every man for himself. So you saw the World Airways flight being mobbed by South Vietnamese soldiers. You saw ships with thousands of refugees,including lots of soldiers.You saw out-of-control panic. Basically,any boats, trucks, airplanes, or anything going south were besieged by people wanting to get onboard.
- Self - Special Forces Advisor: I thought it was a lot easier to beg forgiveness than to get permission.
