May Is Worst Month for US Troops in Iraq Since 2004

by | May 29, 2007 | Uncategorized | 0 comments

As the Pentagon announced the deaths of 10 more US soldiers in Iraq on Memorial Day, May has become the worst month since 2004.

At the end of the month, May 2007 had the highest death toll for US troops (124) since November 2004.

With White House plans to double the number of combat troops in Iraq by Christmas, these numbers are unfortunately likely to continue to rise.
