Vietnam War rescue mission

During the Vietnam War, a South Vietnamese air force pilot stole a Chinook helicopter to save his family and friends. He flew them to the American destroyer "Kirk" and found that the landing deck was too small for the Chinook. Therefore he hovered the Chinook just above the deck and dropped everyone aboard onto the ship's deck. He then rolled the Chinook onto its side and jumped into the sea. He and everyone onboard survived.
