The Orphans Of Vietnam
Any war will always have massive casualties, some of which aren’t seen until well after peace has been declared. After the Vietnam war, hundreds of babies were orphaned. The US started “Operation Babylist” to send for the children and they were adopted in America shortly after. The photograph shows all the babies traveling by plane for what would be their first time on an airplane. They’re bound to have been too young to still remember the experience into adulthood.

A Chimp For The History Books
While we’ve covered Neil Armstrong and his historic moon landing, we haven’t touched on the chimpanzee who paved the way for him to be able to do so safely. Ham the chimp was the first primate to make the trip to the moon and return back safely, as a test before humans were sent. The photograph shows a gleeful Ham holding a newspaper, proudly showing that he made the front page of the newspaper that day for his efforts.
