244 US soldiers died in Iraq in January, February, and March combined of 2007. This is the most US soldiers who have died in any January through March period of the war:

2004 119
2005 200
2006 148
2007 244


Over the 6-month period from October of 2006 through March of 2007, 532 US soldiers died in Iraq. This the most US soldiers who have died in any 6-month period of the war, surpassing the 526 who died from August of 2004 through January of 2005.


3,247 US soldiers have died in Iraq through the end of March of 2007.


On 5/31/05, Dick Cheney maintained that the insurgency was in its last throes.  At least 1,580 US soldiers' fatalities in Iraq occurred between 6/01/05 and 3/31/07, inclusive. 1580 is 48.66% of 3247.


486 + 849 + 846 + 822 + 244 = 3247 US soldiers' fatalities

287 + 366 + 365 + 365 + 90 = 1473 days in Iraq

2.2043 US soldiers have died each day in Iraq for 1,473 days

The fatality rate per day for US soldiers in Iraq rose between 2/28/07 and 3/31/07, the 8th consecutive month that the fatality rate per day rose.

If 67 or more US soldiers die in Iraq in April, the rate will rise for the 9th straight month.
