Consequences

After a 11 year war, it's not like vets and the U.S military can pack up their bags and move on with their lives. Each war has a price to pay. All though Vietnam and France agreed of the Paris Peace, there were many consequence that weaken the U.S and Vietnam. The Vietnam cost the united states 58,000 lives and 350,00 casualties. The Military, especially, suffered for years, but gradually gain its strengthen back. It also resulted in 2 million Vietnamese deaths. A lot of money was spent on all the vet wounds and injuries. It weakened public faith in the government and honesty of it's leaders. A lot of soldiers were addicted to drugs, because they were used to taking them in their free time. Many soldiers had Post Tramatic Stress Syndrome. All of the crops where the battlefield was at got destroyed.
