The most spectacular rescues where when South Vietnamese military airmen flew their families out to sea and tried to land on USN Aircraft Carriers. USN Aircraft Carrier Commanders actually dumped multi-million dollar aircraft INTO THE SEA in order to make room on their flight decks for the incoming South Vietnamese Aircraft.
The boat people came a couple of years later, and those figures will mostly be estimates; as many of those folks are suspected of being lost at sea, and the rest are suspected of "having made it" to some safe landing.
