By late 1970 Australia had also begun to wind down its military effort in Vietnam. The 8th Battalion departed in November, but to make up for the decrease in troop numbers the Team's strength was increased, and its efforts, like those of the taskforce, became concentrated in Phouc Tuy province. The withdrawal of troops and all air units continued throughout 1971: the last battalion left Nui Dat on 7 November, while a handful of advisers belonging to the Team remained in Vietnam for the following year. In December 1972 they became the last Australian troops to come home; their unit had seen continuous service in South Vietnam for ten and a half years. Australia's participation in the war was formally declared at an end when the Governor-General issued a proclamation on 11 January 1973. The only combat troops remaining in Vietnam was a platoon guarding the Australian embbutty in Saigon. This was withdrawn in June 1973.
