	=~~HISTORY~~=		== History ==
	~~TEXT GOES HERE~~		'''Tân Sơn Nhứt Airbase''' was one of the most important military and transportation sites in [[South Vietnam]] during the [[Vietnam War]]. Its origins went back to the late French colonial period, when an airfield was developed on the outskirts of Saigon. After the end of French rule, the site expanded rapidly and became both a major civil airport and a key military base for the Republic of Vietnam.
	~~<br>~~[ ~~SOURCE~~]
			With American assistance in the 1950s and 1960s, Tân Sơn Nhứt grew into the principal air hub of the South Vietnamese capital. New runways, taxiways, terminals, and support facilities turned it into a huge joint civil-military complex. Because it stood beside Saigon, it became central to transport, logistics, command, and air operations throughout the war.

			Its importance also made it a major target. During the Tet Offensive on 31 January 1968, North Vietnamese and Việt Cộng forces attacked Tân Sơn Nhứt as part of the wider assault on the Saigon area. Heavy fighting took place around the base, but U.S. and South Vietnamese defenders held it and prevented the attackers from overrunning one of the most critical military installations in the country.

			Tân Sơn Nhứt remained vital after Tet and continued to serve as one of the busiest military airfields in the war. It was both a working airbase and a symbol of South Vietnam’s connection to American support. As long as it remained open, Saigon still had a direct air link to the outside world.

			That made the base especially important in the final days of April 1975. As North Vietnamese forces closed in on Saigon, Tân Sơn Nhứt became the main point of evacuation for Americans and many South Vietnamese civilians. Air attacks and shelling on 28 and 29 April made continued fixed-wing evacuation impossible, and the crisis shifted to the helicopter airlift of Operation Frequent Wind. In that sense, Tân Sơn Nhứt was important not only during the height of the war, but also in the final collapse of South Vietnam.
