Over 3.6 million tons of bombs were dropped. over 200 lbs. for each man and woman and child in North and South Vietnam. Over 165..000 South Vietnamese civilians have been killed. over 410.000 wounded. Over 2 million refugees uprooted in South Vietnam. Over 2 million refugees in Cambodia. Over 1 million refugees in Laos. Was all this necessary? I know. that many people think that President Nixon is acting solely because of the POW issue. but part of the frustration we feel in Congress is that. covertly. the Nixon administration has demanded so much more and the American people know nothing of these demands.
