Picture shot from inside the bunker of Reunification Palace (in Saigon). All of the walls are reinforced with steel... must have been kind of creepy to be situated down here when all the bombs are going off around you. Lots of escape tunnels everywhere.

Image taken from on top of "Reunification Palace" in Saigon. This building was South Vietnam's capital prior to being overtaken by the North Vietnamese army. The two tanks featured in this picture were the tanks that stormed through the capitol gates on April 30, 1975... and marked the end of the Vietnam war.
