During the Vietnam War, the U.S. Army was tasked with fighting a ground war against the army of North Vietnam and the communist-led insurgency known as the Viet Cong in South Vietnam. The states with the largest number of inhabitants killed or injured during the Vietnam War were California, New York, and Texas. A smaller number of U.S. army casualties came from organized territories of the United States, notably Puerto Rico, Guam, and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
