It is the forgotten war.

American's remember that we lost 58,000 people in the Vietnam Conflict which lasted 16 years (57-73) 3,600 deaths per year

In the Korean Conflict we lost 36,000 in only three years. 12,000 deaths per year.

It is a shame that the Korean Conflict is not more commonly remembered.
