3I'm guessing you also don't want to count French, who were fighting there long before the Americans were. Do you want to count SE asian deaths from the French period in the conflict?– T.E.D. ♦Mar 20, 2013 at 15:44

882,000 Vietnamese casualties, of whom about 444,000 were soldiers, and 200,000–300,000 Cambodian casualties, according to Wikipedia.
And, in addition, it is estimated that as many as 210,000 soldiers and civilians, from an assortment of other nations, primarily Laos, were also killed.
