What's sad is that, for nearly any other war that lasted for 20-years... you can't pinpoint an anniversary date for the withdrawal. Withdrawal was a process that took months or even years.
In this case, troops were rushing for the exit and it all imploded within a few days.
You CAN identify an exact date, because it was sudden and catastrophic.
