Same with Vietnam and Gettysburg. Those guys would have eventually died somehow. I doubt the wars had much impact. Maybe they had cancer that day in Mekong River Delta. General Lee supposedly had a heart attack at Gettysburg, lucky it didn't kill him. I hope that was not counted as a casualty. Again just details that you can't trust. Hell China only has 3400 dead, that is probably overestimated. Probably more like 400. Can't trust the people reporting the details.
