The most deadly part of the Viet War was friendly fire. EVERYBODY had automatice weapons. EVERYBODY sprayed those weapons, they didn't even aim...they just pointed and pulled the trigger..."Sprayed and Prayed" literally. Plus the gunships and jets...all contributed to the most massive amount of firepower ever employed in the history of warfare (minus nukes of course) on just a football area (100 yards) of ground.
750lb and 1000lb general purpose bombs dropped by the jets would leave a crater large enough to drive a full sized pick up truck into (and completely cover the truck up so it couldn't be seen...thats how deep those craters could be). When it rained GIs used to use those bomb craters as Swimming Pools (must state that they had leeches in them though).
In the Vietnam War, Americans had firepower, and loved to use it! Every single armored vehicle (M113s, M48s, M551, even M88s) had .50 calibers on them. Fifity caliber machine guns are the most powerful machine guns in the world and a Vietnam battlefield had those intermingled with the bombs and other bullets, if the NVA didn't get ya...
