Dead soldiers in Iraq has reached a grim benchmark

More US soldiers have died in Iraq than died in the first three years of the Vietnam War. Startling, but true it seems. There were 392 fatal casualties in 1962, ‘63 and ‘64 in Vietnam. The current US deathtoll in Iraq is up to 418 today– which includes the 2 Black Hawks shot down this weekend.
