1997 US Casualties in Iraq- Candlelight Vigils at 2000

[undeterred]

Move On Vigil for 2000 Killed in Iraq

This week, the number of American citizens lost while serving in Iraq reached over 2000. While thousands of families have made the ultimate sacrifice, thousands more send their children and loved ones off to a war that seems to have no end in sight.

At a date and time to be announced we will gather for a vigil to acknowledge our fallen soldiers and reflect on the war in Iraq.

This is an opportunity for thousands of us to gather together and acknowledge the sacrifices made by over 2000 American men and women in Iraq and their families and speak out against the war.

1. Been at 1997 for a while. No recent update today.

We are having a vigil the day 2000 is officially announced, in our small town.

2. Could be any day now.

If its the day of the indictments, that seems fitting.

3. yup. Very.

4. I think it has probably already hit 2,000....

They are not releasing the numbers because they don't want it to be the same day as the indictments. That seems fitting.

6. Today's the day, the casualties are at 2000
