NPR--Kabul Airport chaotic


There is such a thing as leaving too late, or being unable to leave.

Now Taliban is in Kabul, they can't be bombed.

It's terrible.

I don't know how US Army can get everyone out who is trapped in airport.

One Vietnamese artist I interviewed said she only had one shoe on when got on heli when Saigon fell.

Huong is now an artist who exhibits but never needs to sell a painting, her husband, a real estate developer built a big studio and museum/gallery just for her.
