Seven U.S. soldiers and an Iraqi army interpreter came under attack Saturday morning during a patrol of a Sunni insurgent stronghold south of Baghdad, leaving five dead and three missing, the military said. Troops who arrived later found five of the soldiers dead. The other three members of the patrol were gone, according to the statement, from Maj. Gen. William Caldwell, the chief U.S. military spokesman in Iraq.
And as the Daily Kos www.dailykos.com is reporting 265 troops are dead since the escalation. 3393 troops dead since the invasion. And as the Iraq Body Count reports at a minimum 63373 civilians reported killed during military intervention in Iraq. http://www.iraqbodycount.net/
