Community Record Inquiry · Operation Babylift Collection

You are part
of the record.

This inquiry connects your personal history to the Operation Babylift Collection — 33+ boxes of original 1975 FFAC archives, now stewarded by StoryScope Studio as a living community document.

Your information is held under the LEAP™ Five-Layer Consent Framework. You decide what is documented, who sees it, and how it is used. Nothing is published without your explicit permission.

Who you are

Start wherever feels right. No field is required unless marked. Use the names that feel true to you — given, adopted, Vietnamese, chosen.


Your connection to this history

The Children of War community spans seven distinct streams of displacement and diaspora. Tell us where you enter this story — check all that apply.

Your origin record

These fields map directly to the Operation Babylift Collection. Share only what you know — gaps in knowledge are themselves part of the record.

The C-5A Galaxy crash occurred April 4, 1975. If you were on this flight or believe you may have been, please note it here.
If you've seen your original paperwork, any code printed on it helps us cross-reference the archive.

What you are looking for

The archive holds records that may speak to your history. Tell us what questions you carry — and what, if anything, you are ready to encounter.

Your story

These fields are entirely optional. They help the archive understand the living dimensions of the record — identity, language, belonging, place. You decide what you share.

Use the words that feel accurate to you.
The archive recognizes witness as a practice — not a requirement, but a role some community members are ready for.

Consent and stewardship

LEAP™ (Love Ethic Archival Practice) holds that you are always the primary steward of your own story. These choices are yours to make — and yours to change.
