For someone who rightly depends upon anonymity in today's intrusive and interconnected age, you sure try to get personal. You should know by now that I don't bite.

Do you have a source for Giap's 4.4 million figure? Which book of his?

I didn't know that the NVA enrolled whole families, but it does make the whole debate over women serving in combat units today rather silly, doesn't it?
