That last one is not S. Vietnam surrendering, that's an American meeting Bui Tin, N. Vietnam Colonel, in 1973 as they implemented the Paris Peace Accord.
My understanding is there was no formal handover in 1975. In fact when the N. Vietnam knocked down the gate of the Presidential Palace and went inside, the S. Vietnam Prime Minister said he was handing over S. Vietnam and the response was "You have nothing left to handover at this point".
