Cars Vs. Wars

In the ongoing Fat Knowledge campaign against cars, I add this nugget from Ask Marilyn:

Since the start of the Revolution in 1775, about a million Americans have died in wars. And since Henry Ford introduced the mass-produced motorcar in 1913, more than 2.5 million Americans have met their deaths on the road.

Aah but wait - In true Phatboy style, we must hear of how many Americans have gone to war since 1775 and how many Americans have ridden in a car (including repeat rides .. and repeat wars) ..
