Over 1,900 US servicemen were MIA or POW during the war.
POW-MIA Issue (unaccounted-for versus missing in action)
Politics & People, On Vietnam, Clinton Should Follow a Hero's Advice, contained this quote about Vietnam, there has been "the most extensive accounting in the history of human warfare" of those missing in action. While there are still officially more than 2,200 cases, there now are only 55 incidents of American servicemen who were last seen alive but aren't accounted for. By contrast, there still are 78,000 unaccounted-for Americans from World War II and 8,100 from the Korean conflict.
Fleeing east, west, north or south...if they left their country during the cold war, they were labeled "Defectors."
US: 58,000 dead; 300,000 wounded. S. Viets: approximately 200,000 dead. NVA/VC: Estimated at 1,000,000 dead.
Southern sympathisers living in South Vietnam. Another words, they were not from North Vietnam and not members of the North Viet Army (NVA). But they were on the same side as the NVA and were taking orders from Hanoi (Capital of North Vietnam).
Discounting AAA gun crews, SAM site crews, transportation personnel, engineers, and just counting the NVA infantrymen & tank crewmen, possibly 500,000 men thru out the war. A vast amount of NVA casualties were attributed to the B52 Stratofortress...this weapon destroyed more men than any other weapon during the war...it was also the most feared weapon by the communists (both NVA & VC). Hanoi has hinted that approximately 2 million communists (total) died in the war.
Not being a regular army like the NVA, the VC were forced to utilize mainly guerrilla tactics (hit & run).
