Lashmar I 'm getting unclear estimates for vietnam with between 500000 to 4 million Civilians killed.

But I did do a little work looking at the figures and the original statement looks wrong, but it does keep getting worse percentage wise.

World War I Deaths
Civilians 6,821,248 (41%) Military 9,721,937
World War II Deaths
Civilians 41,753,400 (62%) Military 25,280,100
Korean War Deaths
Civilians 2,000,000 (54%) Military 1664000+
The Above are the wikipedia counts
Vietnam War Deaths are unclear
Gulf War I
Civilians 37500 (78%) Military 10000

I`m sure that the percentage in Vietnam is above 80% when it comes to civilian casualties...
It´s very sad...
