Last Days in Vietnam (2014)


Released January 14th in the US.
The story : On January 27 , 1973 the governments of the United States , the Democratic Republic of South Vietnam , the Democratic Republic of North Vietnam and the Provisional Revolutionary Government all signed the Paris Peace Accords Agreement , which was intended to end the war and restore peace in Vietnam.
Many American troops were sent back to the states.
Six months later , some Americans were still in Saigon and some returned...
On August 8 , 1974 , Watergate was the end of Nixon's presidency.
By March 10 , 1975 - the war was once again up and running this time between North and South Vietnam at the command of South Vietnam President Nguyen Van Thieu.
