Vietnam War: US Hands Over Long Binh to South Vietnam: Vietnamization
The United States Army hands over the sprawling Long Binh military base to South Vietnamese forces, signaling a decisive shift from direct American combat to local defense. This transfer marks the physical implementation of Nixon's Vietnamization policy, effectively ending U.S. ground troop presence at the war's largest logistical hub and accelerating the withdrawal of American soldiers from the conflict.
