| While no loss can be minimized, it must be noted that Camden and Gloucester City bore 40% of Camden County's fatalities during the Vietnam War. If one added the losses from the bordering towns of Pennsauken, Merchantville, Collingswood, Woodlynne, West Collingswood Heights, and Woodlynne, the figure would be over 60%. |
