Strange they noted that only 51,000 Americans died in World War I, the figure is closer to 115,000.

The article is somewhat poorly done. It fails to point out that this is only the third war we've been in with extensive reconstruction effort afterwards. The other two being the Civil War and most obvioulsy World War II.
