No civilian government yet in Saigon three weeks after takeover
After Communist forces captured Saigon there is no sign of a civilian administration. Banks remain closed, international flights and long-distance lines are largely down, while North Vietnamese troops hold strategic positions. The military management committee says it aims to normalize life and curb fears of regimentation.

Halfway house aids Vietnam refugees in Carlsbad
Richard Gilbert runs a four bedroom Oceanside home to shelter about 20 Vietnamese refugees awaiting sponsors or security checks from Camp Pendleton. The project grew from church contact with deacon Joe Alvin who suggested housing refugees locally rather than in a single home. Gilbert and his wife Marcella share rent, splitting $250 monthly, as they prepare a supportive living space.
