Original Note:
NNN. While the poster’s statement on the referenced account is an opinion, 25,000 Americans did not die building the canal, as the actual number is closer to 6,000. Also, a lot of these workers were recruited from the Caribbean area, and were not likely all American deaths. https://www.history.com/news/panama-canal-construction-dangers
