I apologize to my fellow freepers for this lazy posting, but I've been googling and searching for several days, and I cannot find the number of American soldiers killed in Vietnam during LBJ's presidency.
I am attempting to catalogue the abuses of the military by the Democrat administrations in the 2nd half of the 20th Century.
Thanks,
John
I'm not sure about LBJ but the total was over 58,000.
I was going to say around 55,000.
