When you say troops does that mean me. when they refer to how many men were killed in Vietnam does troops mean men?

During the Vietnam War and prior (and possibly today, however the current US military is changing so much (almost a law enforcement force), the term "troop" meant either a single soldier and a company of soldiers (men). Examples: a soldier in Vietnam was sometimes called (referred to), "...hey trooper, where ya headed?" Or "Hey troop where's your hat?" However, it was officially (in Vietnam) also the term used for US Armored Cavalry companys; such as, "A Troop, 3rd Sqd 5th Cav", or "B Troop, 3/5 Cav", or "C Troop, 3rd Squadron, 5th Cavalry." (In Vietnam-things might be different today) the US Artillery companies were called "Batterys". Example: "A Battery, 5rd Battalion, 4th Artillery." Everyone else was a "Company."

How many troops in army squad?

In actual war, numbers are based upon reality. Example: in the Vietnam War sometimes a dismounted platoon was only 8 men. The rest were either pulling .50 duty or assigned driver on the ACAV, or DERO's or ETS'd out. DEROs was rotated out of Vietnam (his tour of duty was up); ETS was honorably discharged from the army. An ACAV was a M-113, modified into a Armored Cavalry Assault Vehicle. For PAPER purposes, a squad is the lowest army unit, consisting of 12 men. But the squad "could" be further divided into sections. Two or more squads make a platoon; a platoon is the lowest OFFICER led unit in the Army. Usually three platoons (plus a headquarters platoon) make a company. In the Armored Cavalry, a company is called a TROOP...such as "F" Troop. Cavalry Troops and Infantry Company's are commanded by Captains.
