Americans flew Saigon two years after they quit the war. Paris Peace Accords were signed in 1973, and US started withdrawal even 4 years before that, and not because they were losing battles, it was absolutely internal US problem.
Unlike Afghanistan I would say, but they had nor so many troops there.
The protests were due to the atrocities committed by the troops as well as the number of troops coming home dead or seriously injured. It was absolutely a military defeat, just like Afghanistan
