If you had to choose to fight an any war, which one would you choose to fight in? For me, it would be WWII... there was enough health knowledge and such to keep soldiers healthier, and was perhaps the last war of that kind to have a good cause.

Uhh, how'd you did that statistic? In Nam, you had to deal with the diseases of the jungle, vicious traps set by the vietkong, horrible POW camps, terrifying guerilla warfare where the enemy could shoot you in the back any second, and the highest probability that you will have post war trauma. Vietnam sucked.

In nam it was about 1 and 16 the least of any modern war up to that date. the trama thing is true. because there were atrocities on both sides and there was extreme culture shock because you were usually lown strait back to the US as soon as your tour was up. with WWII there was like a month in between combat and getting home.

Civil War - 3,213,363 serving / 191,963 battle deaths - 5.9% killed

WWI - 4,734,991 serving / 53,402 battle deaths - 1.1% killed

WWII - 16,112,566 serving/ 291,557 battle deaths - 1.8% killed

Vietnam - 8,744,000 serving / 47,424 battle deaths - 0.54% killed

Without counting the smaller wars such as the Gulf, I think I picked the right one.

No,which is why I'm joking.I wouldn't want to be in any war and for those saying that vietnam would be the one of the easier war's to live through,think again.Vietnam was a nightmare,if you have ever known a Vietnam veteran than you should ask them to tell you a story of their time there.I don't care what those statistic's say,Vietnam is regarded as one of the worst war's of all time along with the Korean war.

exactly, it's like calling every soldier in Iraq for greedy republicans just because Bush sent them there.

But, the SS was a totally different thing, they were trained Hitler Jugend.

Because it'd be fun. We'd run around with our cute swords in pretty little meadows and than we can have picnics:oops:. See if I was the Pope then, that's how I would have done it.
