- warriormonk5 9y agoSo at it's peak we had ~160k Americans in Iraq. At Afghanistan peak, we had ~100k. Chicago has ~11 times as many Americans. I'll take my chances with Chicago. It's actually shows how remarkably low we were on the casualty rate in the wars we had. Far cry from the civil war (~25% casualty rate).
