In April 1975 -- despite a ceasefire agreement -- the North Vietnamese communists took Saigon and the world by surprise, mounting an offensive that ousted the South Vietnamese government.

Interviews with former National Security Adviser Henry Kissinger and North Vietnamese officers provide context.
