The trend is looking much better. We've clearly entered into a period of relative calm in Iraq. Things are heating up in Afghanistan, but the cumulative effect is still a dramatic decrease in casualties of American soldiers for the month of October.
October's History of Military Casualties:
2003 - 44
2004 - 64
2005 - 96
2006 - 110
2007 - 49
Over time October has defined itself as one of the deadliest months, which makes this October's statistics all the more dramatic and welcome. Let us hope and pray that more than just a lull in the conflict, we are witness to a shift in the trend of violence and destruction.
