US Marines, Navy, Special Ops, evacuation of Saigon; 1975.
This is not a good answer. The question was "sent" not evacuated. The real answer is probably unknowable. Records of such movements are usually sealed and ignored. The 'probable' last deployment of actual fighting troops would have been during the very last few weeks of the evacuation - mainly as back-ups guarding the evacuation. As far as actual 'boots on the ground' deployment - the last groups were probably in early 1974 with the expectation to only spend one year. These troops were mainly, as I said, as back-up.
So it would really require someone to dig specifically for these answers in files from the DoD - not to mention the CIA. The CIA may have been deploying their "troops" long after the final days of 1975.
