It didn't effect the nation, except for the usual draftees that had to fight it. The main thing that affected the US was the military: the World (led by the US) was recovering from WWII, and transitioning from propeller driven aircraft to jets; from WWII tanks to modern tanks; from bolt action (US had semi-autos) WWII rifles for the common infantryman to semi-autos/burp guns for everybody; helicopters were being worked into the system. Bottom line: Korean War jets, tanks, guns, small arms, were being transitioned into weapons that would fight in Vietnam 10 years later. Some examples follow: 1. Korean War M46 Patton tank evolved into the Vietnam War M48 Patton tank. 2. Korean War F-86 Sabre jet evolved into the Vietnam War F-100 Super Sabre jet. 3. Korean War (was also a WWII plane) B-29 Superfortress bomber evolved into a Vietnam War B-52 Stratofortress bomber. 4. Korean War US Navy Phantom jet evolved into a Vietnam War F-4 Phantom II jet.
