  • The war had devastating losses for both South and North Vietnam. An estimated 2 million Vietnamese civilians were killed. Roughly 1.1 million North Vietnamese troops and 250,000 South Vietnamese troops were also killed. In April 1975, when North Vietnam overtook Saigon, the country was unified under communism. Those who worked for the South Vietnamese army or government were sent to "reeducation camps" or prison camps.

  • The U.S. dropped about 8 million tons of bombs from 1965-1973, more than WWII, destroying the landscape and leading to civilian deaths. Vietnam was the most heavily bombed country in history. The U.S. also dropped toxic chemicals such as Agent Orange, which destroyed crops and ground cover. Herbicides decimated 5 million acres of forest and 500,000 acres of farmland. Agent Orange was found to cause serious physical and neurological diseases and birth defects.
  • About 2,700,000 American men and women served, and over 58,300 lost their lives. The Vietnam Memorial was dedicated in 1982 and lists the names of all those killed or MIA. The U.S. did not meet its goals and because of the controversy surrounding the morality of the war, many veterans did not feel welcomed at home. Many were wounded and suffered PTSD.
  • The many controversies and secrets surrounding the U.S. involvement in Vietnam, the draft, and the devastating loss of life and land led to a huge backlash and mistrust of the government. The time period saw many protests (sometimes violent) on the homefront, fighting for civil rights, women's rights and anti-war. This activism continues today.
