Hilary Brown is a Canadian journalist regularly characterised as a ground-breaker for working as a foreign correspondent and war correspondent when women were rarely posted to dangerous locations. Initially, she worked for CBC News in Canada. For four decades, from 1971, she worked as a foreign correspondent and war correspondent for all three of the USA's main networks. In 2015, the New York Times explicitly named her work as an inspiration for women serving as war correspondents today. In 1975 she was among the last to evacuate during the fall of Saigon. She reported on how the US Navy took the extraordinary step of pushing recently arrived helicopters off their aircraft carriers, into the sea, because their hangars were full. Footage of her report has been widely broadcast, including in the Oscar-winning film, "The Deer Hunter". The Siege of Sarajevo was the longest of a capital city in the history of modern warfare. After being initially besieged by the forces of the Yugoslav People's Army, Sarajevo was besieged by the Army of Republika Srpska from 5th April 1992 to 29th February 1996 (1, 425 days) during the Bosnian War. In total, 13, 952 people were killed during the siege.
