According to cnn.com on Friday, we have lost 58 since the end of major combat-18 to hostile fire, the rest were non hostile incidents. We lost another since then and then add the 4 today and I guess the total combat deaths would be 23.

Wrong! The AP and the other news organization are being INTENTIONALLY misleading with these stories. The 19 inludes the ONE mentioned in this article. If you read the article only one soldier was killed.
