Yeah, I was referring to US military deaths. 2400 in 20 years.

Russia had more in the first week or so in Ukraine.

[navysealdad]

I was just what showing our good intentions did.

[Mr. Mojo]

Hear ya. What a waste.

[OKSooner]

Why do you think that?

General Greene wasn't killed in combat, though. He was running a training academy and an argument broke out between some Afghans one of them opened fire and shot a dozen people, and General Greene was one of them.

Daily Propaganda:

“Eleventy zillion evil Russian puppy stompers killed by Zalinsky’s own hands!”

[Jacquerie]

I wonder how many senior US officers were casualties over those 20 years?

I’m not aware of flag officer deaths.
