If DTaP #4 is given with at least a 4-month interval after DTaP #3, it does not need to be repeated. The minimum age of 12 months for the fourth dose must be met. Decreasing the interval to less than 6 months, however, is not recommended.
The total given by the VA for the Indian Wars (1,000) seems to be a wild guess. Just two major defeats -- Custer's and St. Clair's -- add up to about 900 dead all by themselves. The official number of Americans killed in the Revolutionary War (4,435) is only about 2/3 the numbers usually given by historians. The total of US combat deaths during the Civil War is given as 140,414 -- or some 30,000 higher than most historians would estimate. I suspect (but don't know for sure) that the boost may come from the DoD counting deaths among POWs as combat rather than disease.
Revolutionary War Records. It was the shot heard 'round the world â the beginning of America's war for independence from British rule on April 19, 1775. Led by General George Washington, some 217,000 American service members eventually fought in the Revolutionary War, each with their own unique tale of bravery, sacrifice and honor.
