Thank you for pointing this out to me. After further study, I see that the in-theater deaths from all causes are 36,576 and that 17,670 died in other locations out of theater in the same period.

While any death of our personnel is tragic, it was very misleading to have, for so many years, mentioned the 54,000+ figure in conjunction with the Korean War IMHO.

I am glad the record has been set straight, and that I have now learned of it, albeit at a late date.

Even with the 17,000 less deaths, it was a horrific struggle over the space of 2 1/2 -3 years. Much more intense than anything we have seen since. Even more intense than WW II when you consider the relative small surface area involved.

Again, thanks and best Fregards to you and yours.

Yes it was tragic, that is what happens when you let a Democrat run a war.
