Whatever reason one had to be in the country, best day to leave was right after US left Bagram Air Base basically overnight.
If you put things off and waited after seeing that happen, it's on you. Leave everything, except the truly essential (your charge, spouse and IDs, anything else leave or burn if it implicates you in any way with anything).
