    Not sure how a country of 203 million in 1970 (census data) would have sent a multiple of its population to war in Vietnam?!

    Your numbers are off by a LOT.

        Thanks for correcting your post, now it makes sense and really shows how fucked the US is. This will get much worse for everyone involved and everyone of us.
