Yes, I noticed it said "18 U.S. Dead" when I first checked your link and now MSNBC has changed it to "casualties".

WASHINGTON - A group of 40 to 60 insurgents attacked the Abu Ghraib prison in Iraq late Saturday in a well-coordinated assault that inflicted 18 American casualties, U.S. military officials told NBC News.
The officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity, could not immediately provide a breakdown on the number of dead or wounded.
The officials said the insurgents attacked with two car or truck bombs, 40 mortars and an intense ground assault.
U.S. forces in Iraq house many suspected insurgents at the prison outside Baghdad, which is at the center of a prison abuse scandal.

40 mortars
Sweet and Merciful Jesus that is a lot of mortars. The most I ever experienced over there was 18, and that felt like 18,000.....
