The last guy up the rope ladder to the last American helicopter out of the embassy in Saigon was born to a family that had lived on the Mount of Olives since time immemorial.

How come his name isn't in all the American history books?

Their family ended up in a refugee camp as "Palestinian Refugees".

This story is pure BS. The Mount of Olives was under Jordanian control.

Why isn't his name where? He was in the US Air Force. I've seen his picture going up the ladder (both as a video and as stills), met him, and used to spend quite a bit of time drinking coffee with his older brother in Arlington, VA.

BTW, things go on in this world that are not pre-cleared for your entertainment.

Didn't Jordanian control end in 1967?
