Over a period of three years or so, we killed off, what, 20 percent of the population?” — General Curtis LeMay, in “Strategic Air Warfare” >“The war in Korea has already almost destroyed that nation of 20 million people. I have never seen such devastation. After I looked at that wreckage and those thousands of women and children … I vomited.” — MacArthur in 1951>The US dropped a total of 635,000 tons of bombs, including 32,557 tons of napalm, on Korea.
