Can you or anyone tell me if US Military deaths have gone down after the surge ?

I don’t seem to be hearing a lot daily from the media anymore. Of course I do hear about suicide bombers targetting Iraqi civilians, but they don’t seem to be occuring daily ( if I am not mistaken ).

If true, there seems to be some relative success we’re havin... however I need confirmation of this from people in the know.

I think you would expect American troops to increase during the surge because they are entering enemy strongholds to engage and destroy them. I would urge not to judge the surge on numbers at least initially. In the long term that would be something to use to judge the success.
