My understanding is that Vietnam was a bit of a CF because of the rotation system. It destroyed unit cohesion, and the high turnover of officers severely undermined their authority while simultaneously removing them from the field just as they started to become competent.
Of course that's just a general impression.
If that's the case, it seems very unlikely the US would continue the practise in WWIII - but then we are talking about the military....
