Operasi Babylift

Operasi Babylift adalah nama yang diberikan kepada evakuasi massal anak-anak dari Vietnam Selatan ke Amerika Serikat dan negara lainnya (yang meliputi Australia, Prancis, Jerman Barat, dan Kanada) pada akhir Perang Vietnam, pada 3–26 April 1975. Pada penerbangan Amerika terakhir dari Vietnam Selatan, lebih dari 3.300 bayi dan anak-anak dievakuasi, meskipun jumlah yang sebenarnya dilaporkan secara beragam.  Bersama dengan Operasi New Life, lebih dari 110.000 pengungsi dievakuasi dari Vietnam Selatan pada akhir Perang Vietnam. Ribuan anak diangkut dari Vietnam dan diadopsi oleh keluarga-keluarga di seluruh penjuru dunia.
