Early US troop withdrawals from Vietnam announced
In Saigon hundreds of American GIs are being released up to two and a half months early to reach a 27 000 man ceiling by December 1. The move is linked to Nixon’s fourteenth troop cut increment, not to any cease fire, with about 34 000 troops still in Vietnam. Contingency plans exist for withdrawal within 60 days of a cease fire, but no orders to go beyond 27 000.
