Agreed, that goes back to the orignal planning by USA PLC, you evacuate the Civilians before the troops, not as the US decided, the other way around, that was not a military decision, the other thing they did was to send out Electronic Visa's to those eligible without identification on them i believe, people took screenshots, printed them off and flooded the airfield, hence the initial problems.

One reason for the chaos was the decision to issue electronic visas, without names or document numbers, to SIV applicants. The visas were then copied as screenshots and sent by Afghans to thousands of other Afghans who were not eligible for access to the airport, a source told CNN at the weekend.
“I don’t think consular, or the administration frankly, realizes how badly they f*****d up by sending that stupid visa and letting everyone in for 24 hours straight,” the source said Monday.
So those copying and forwarding them may have shot themselves in the foot and might have found they couldn't enter.
