Landon Carnie and his twin sister Lorie Carnie are among 230 children in the flight carrying orphans out of Saigon on April 4, 1975. Landon's mother died in childbirth. His father could not afford to raise the twins so he sent them to an orphanage. This rare photo was take of Landon and his sister at an orphanage in the south at an unknown time, before they moved to Saigon and were brought to the United States. That was a disaster flight when the C5A aircraft crashed in a field near Tan Son Nhat International Airport shortly after takeoff. The number of people killed in the accident, according to US officials, is 153 people, including 78 Vietnamese children. Landon and his sister survived after they were thrown out in the field and not injured. A day later, both were discovered by a farmer and they were brought to the United States later. Photos provided by the individual. 

Landon and his sister were adopted by a family in California. In 2002, he decided to return to Vietnam to settle. Landon is currently a lecturer of communication at RMIT Vietnam University. After 13 years living in Vietnam, recently Landon returned to the scene of the horrific plane crash in the past. His sister still lives in the US. The photo is provided by the individual.

The photo of Nguyen Ngoc Nhu (Tricia Houston) was taken by the adoptive family in America soon after she was taken to the US. Ngoc Nhu was born as the result of love between Mr. Phan Minh Triet and Ms. Nguyen Thi An during the intense war. The mother sent the child to Duc Anh Society and the baby was then transferred to the orphanage in the Hang Xanh – Gia Dinh Church. In April 1975, Ngoc Nhu and the other children in the orphanage were brought to the United States under the program Babylift. On 30/4/1975, Triet returned to Saigon to find his child but he could not.  He only knew the name of the child. For 38 years he did not stop looking for her daughter. His information about his missing child was posted on Facebook and accidently came up with a friend of Nhu in the US. The DNA test confirmed that they are father and daughter. They found each other after 40 years. They contacted with each other before Nhu returned to Vietnam in April 2015. The photo is provided by the family.

Nguyen Ngoc Nhu visited her father in District 4, Ho Chi Minh City, in early April. She also visited her hometown in An Giang and was named in the genealogy of the family. Nhu is a primary school teacher in the United States. The photo is provided by the family.
