Nixon signals Vietnam troop pullout with 50,000 cap
President Nixon’s expected announcement targets ending major U.S. troop combat in Indochina and spurs debate over post-1972 presence. Officials cite a possible reduction from about 300,000 in South Vietnam toward 1,000 by year’s end, with continued withdrawals and a wish to preserve some forces only if North Vietnam holds prisoners. Senators Cooper and Church call for a withdrawal deadline despite Nixon’s opposition.
