One out of every 10 Americans who served in Vietnam was a casualty.  58,169 were killed and 304,000 wounded of 2.59 million who served.  Although the percent who died is similar to other wars, amputations or crippling wounds were 300% higher than in WWII.  75,000 Vietnam Vets were severely disabled.

The Vietnam War
THIS WAS POSTED IN THE VETERANS MUSEUM IN BRANSON, MO
The Vietnam War was the most divisive and controversial war in U.S. history, and the truth of the Vietnam War remains elusive. The first war played out every night in two minute segments on peoples' TV sets, most of what people think they know about the Vietnam War was generated by fragmentary and incomplete reporting, both on the TV and in the papers. Against this entrenched belief, even the most painstakingly researched and immaculately documented research to the contrary has made little headway, and the Vietnam War remains poorly understood and very controversial to this day. Some progress, however, has been made. Whatever the remaining controversy, virtually all of the American people admit that the Vietnam veteran got a raw deal and deserves the nation's thanks and a heartfelt apology.
