US Vietnam Soldier Camping
The Vietnam conflict lasted for almost 20 years resulting in a high number of casualties both from the civilian populations and military servicemen from all sides. The war was spread out on the territories of modern day Vietnam, Cambodia Laos.
The death toll for the US army was around 60.000 soldiers. The unconventional warfare of the south eastern Asian jungles was extreme. Mud, rain, monsoons and other elements played a very difficult factor against the US troops. At the same time, the local Vietnamese were very well adapted, using a range of booby traps and a high number of underground tunnels.
