6,158,000 total military deaths this year (1971)

unknown number of civilian deaths this year. Assume it's almost 3 times the number (18,000,000)

WW3 casualties

*~350,000 Military casualties (1968)

*~650,000 Civilian casualties (1968)

*1968 deaths: 1,000,000

*~4,000,000 Military casualties (1969)

*~8,000,000 Civilian casualties (1969)

*1969 Deaths: ~12,000,000 Casualties

*~8,700,000 Miitary casualties (1970)

*~20,000,000 Civilian Casualties (1970)

*~6,158,000 Military Casualties (1971)

*~ 18,474,000 Civilian Casualties (1971)

Total WW3 Casualties estimated overall: 51,464,000 (first 3 years), 51,500,000 Round up is a better estimate

 Factors why death rate is higher than WW2 for each year:

 *World population growth since 1940 (2,300,000,000 in 1940 OTL, 3,680,000,000 ATL to 3,706,000,000 in 1970 OTL)
