No crew members were killed during a firefight or hit from a anti-tank rocket. We almost lost one driver when he had trouble extracting himself from a burning tank.
We did lose an entire crew by drowning when an Abrams was driven off a bridge.

Correct. Let us also remember that no one who hit an Abrams with a rocket propelled grnade is around to brag about it.
