Does the last paragraph containing statistics about deaths need some time frame? "The U.S. military reports 4 U.S. Marines from the 1st Marine Expeditionary Unit were killed in action in al Anbar. An Army soldier with the 1st Infantry Division was killed when the combat patrol was attacked near Duluiyah. A series of car bombs and attacks resulted in at least 6 deaths in Iraq and more wounded, including at least 7 U.S. military personnel." This does not cover all the deaths in Iraq so it seems like it needs a frame of reference or some comment about what it includes or to what it is related. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 81.232.173.82 (talkcontribs) 21:02, 26 January 2005‎

Error in Marine Division!!!!!

[edit]

This Helicopter was transporting Marines from the 3rd Marine Division based out of Kaneohe Bay, Hawaii. Most of the Men lost in this disaster where from Charlie Company 1st Batallion 3rd Marines. This is Fact as this was my unit and I was there!
