I haven't heard either that 7 had been killed in combat. I was aware of only 2.

Are you maybe hung up on the semantics of:
"Killed in Combat",
as opposed to
"Killed by Hostile Fire".
4 in Helicoptor Crash Landing.
2 in combat action.
1 in traffic accident.
1 in Helicoptor Mid-Air collision.
1 in fragging incident.
- -
All of these will be counted as Killed in Combat
since it has occured during the operations.
