GI's always came home on a continuous basis; after their 12 month tour, they rotated home. Draftees only served 24 months in the army; if sent to Vietnam, they often ETS'd after only 18 months in the army (6 months for training, 12 months in Nam). The US began leaving the war in about '73. Total evacuation occurred in April 1975 (when the South was over-run).
