A bit misleading in that before Johnson casualties were pretty small but during his 8 years in 8 we lost 35,000 KIA or about 4k/year. Nixon was in Jan 1969 to and 1974... about 5 years and lost 21,041 or an average of 4k/year. About the same percentage... and yet we are told that Nixon was winding the war down.
Either way both were bad, but LBJ was merely a fool that made stupid mistakes. Nixon was worse and drug the war out for political gain.
Just my $.02
