Here is a short excerpt from Howard Zinn's The Twentieth Century (referring to the Spanish-American war):
"A volunteer from this state of Washington wrote: 'Our fighting blood was up, and we all wanted to kill 'n***rs.' ...This shooting human beings beats rabbit hunting all to pieces.' It was a time of intense racism in the United States. In the years between 1889 and 1903, on the average, every week, two Nigroes were lynched by mobs-hanged, burned, mutilated.

Tet Offensive, by Jim Oesterwind (2012)
The following is from Sparknotes.com:
"The most immediat effect of the Vietnam War was the staggering death toll. The war killed an estimated 2 million Vietnamese civilians, 11 North Vietnamwese troops, 200,000 South Vietnamese troops, and 58,000 U.S. troops."
