Korean War

The following is some information I ran across while doing research.
More than 1, 789,000 Americans served in the Armed Fores in Korea during the 37 months of hostilities. For the U. S., the war began June 25, 1950, and ended 27 July 1953. The maximum troop strength came at the end of the war when the U. S. had 325, 270 troops in Korea. The following are some of the statistics of that war:
Hostile deaths totaled 33, 741.
Army - 27, 731

The deadliest battle was at the Pusan Peninsula; 3, 603 Americans died
California lost 2, 611 servicemen in the war, followed by Pennsylvania, 2, 401; New York, 2, 373; Missouri, 944.
