America spent $150 Billion USD on the war. 58 000 US soldiers died, an estimated 3.8 million Vietnamese people died, some innocent victims to a war that was not their own. Babies are being born in Vietnam due to the terrible chemicals Agent Orange and Napalm bombs, a detriment to Vietnamese society. Vietnam has been left with a raped and pillaged landscape, with flooding and erosion huge problems for the Vietnamese farmers (the trees are struggling to regrow back from the chemicals and the biodiversity in Vietnam is struggling with little habitat for the animals.) These are just a few of the lasting and short term results of the Vietnam War, a war that should be remembered for America's mindless escalation of the war and the inhumane treatment of the Vietnamese civilians.
