Lots of comparisons to Saigon this morning.
Here are some data points regarding the two-day evacuation there, on April 29-30, 1975, extracted from a CIA report.
North Vietnamese began their main attack on Saigon on April 27, hitting Saigon for the first time since 1973.
South Vietnam's president's call for a cease-fire/peace talks were rejected. South Vietnamese military leadership left their commands. Many committed suicide.
A group of defecting South Vietnamese Air Force pilots dropped six bombs on the Air Base intended as the major evacuation point. Several U.S. aircraft were destroyed and the runway received heavy damage.

This is Pogue's department store in downtown Cincinnati, in 1916.

The store was started in 1863 by the Pogue brothers and was a fixture of Cincinnati life for more than 100 years.

Vaudeville star Trixie Friganza once sold handkerchiefs there for $4.50/week.

Perhaps this is one of those tweets that only appeals to the tweeter, me, in this instance, but this 2 minute film of Trixie Friganza is the perfect tonic for today's bad news overload. We look at Trixie and the demise of vaudeville in our next newsletter
