”Numbers have dehumanized us. Over breakfast coffee we read of 40,000 American dead in Vietnam. Instead of vomiting, we reach for the toast.”- Dalton Trumbo’s ‘Johnny Got His Gun’.

40,000 markings, 8000 tallies, the number of american soldiers who died in the Vietnam war. Each mark a soldier. Inspired by Dalton Trumbo’s ‘Johnny Got His Gun’. ”Numbers have dehumanized us. Over breakfast coffee we read of 40,000 American dead in Vietnam. Instead of vomiting, we reach for the toast. Our morning rush through crowded streets is not to cry murder but to hit that trough before somebody else gobbles our share. An equation: 40,000 dead young men = 3,000 tons of bone and flesh, 124,000 pounds of brain matter, 50,000 gallons of blood, 1,840,000 years of life that will never be lived, 100,000 children who will never be born.”
