Project 100,000, also known as McNamara's 100,000, McNamara's Folly, McNamara's Morons, and McNamara's Misfits, was a controversial 1960s program by the United States Department of Defense (DoD) to recruit soldiers who would previously have been below military mental or medical standards. Project 100,000 was initiated by Defense Secretary Robert McNamara in October 1966 to meet the escalating manpower requirements of the American government's involvement in the Vietnam War. According to Hamilton Gregory, author of the book McNamara's Folly: The Use of Low-IQ Troops in the Vietnam War, inductees of the project died at higher rates than other Americans serving in Vietnam and following their service had lower incomes and higher rates of divorce than their non-veteran counterparts.

According to Hamilton Gregory, author of the book McNamara's Folly: The Use of Low-IQ Troops in the Vietnam War, inductees of the project died at higher rates than other Americans serving in Vietnam and following their service had lower incomes and higher rates of divorce than their non-veteran counterparts. The project was ended in December 1971 and has been the subject of controversy, especially during the manpower shortages of the Iraq War. (en)

De acordo com Hamilton Gregory, autor do livro McNamara's Folly: The Use of Low-IQ Troops in the Vietnam War, os indivíduos induzidos pelo projeto morreram em taxas mais altas do que outros estadunidenses que serviram no Vietnã e, após seu serviço, tiveram rendas mais baixas e taxas mais altas de divórcio do que seus colegas não veteranos. O projeto foi finalizado em dezembro de 1971 e tem sido tema de controvérsia, especialmente durante a escassez de mão de obra na Guerra do Iraque. (pt)
- Проект 100 000 — целевая программа американского оборонного ведомства по комплектованию вооружённых сил призывниками, набранными из тех категорий, которые до этого формальным образом не вписывались в армейские требования из-за своих проблем с физическим или умственным развитием. Проект 100 000 был запущен в 1960-х годах по инициативе министра обороны США Роберта Макнамары в связи с нехваткой , а также — из-за серьёзных потерь армии США в ходе вьетнамской войны. Как законодательная инициатива он был представлен общественности в виде средства «социальной коррекции». В рамках его положений в течение пяти лет около 345 000 человек с низким уровнем IQ поступили на службу и были направлены в войска, ведущие боевые действия во Вьетнаме. Призывной контингент, набранный в рамках этого проекта, снискал среди кадровых американских военных ряд неформально-пренебрежительных наименований: «дебилы Макнамары» (англ. McNamara’s Morons), «корпус дебилов» (англ. Moron Corps) и т. п. Существенная часть из этих людей испытывали трудности с преодолением боевого стресса и контролем над эмоциями, они значительно чаще остальных солдат нарушали воинскую дисциплину, субординацию, имели склонность к дезертирству и нападениям на сослуживцев. В связи с тем, что количество погибших среди новобранцев Проекта 100 000 было непропорционально велико, а в их расовом составе процент чернокожих солдат был значительно выше, чем по остальным вооружённым силам, то в современном американском обществе Проект 100 000 стал рассматриваться как одна из самых постыдных страниц истории США XX столетия.
