Are casualty averages for U.S.soldiers going up?
Advertisements [?]
There seems to be an awful lot of ten soldiers dead, nine soldiers dead, seven soldiers dead days recently. Whereas I don't remember the casualty count ever being that high on a single day, maybe a few here and there but not with this consistency. If I were to don my tinfoil hat I'd speculate that there had been a mass casualty event and they are only releasing info on the individuals in spurts so as to lessen the blow of what really happened and to try to obscure it in the days news and other events. In any event folks, the DoD is getting us used to ten of our young boys and girls dying every single day. Is there any way to get third party confirmation on armed actions in Iraq and independent confirmation on casualties because we need it. UN? ICRC?
