Hundreds remember four million civilians killed in the war in Adelaide?

20-08-2006 13:44

four million civilians killed

The accuracy of these figures has generally not been challenged. 58,226 American militants also died in the war or are missing in action. Australia lost almost 500 of the 47,000 militants they had deployed to Vietnam and New Zealand lost 38 militants."
