The lowest previous monthly number I find there is 55 in may-2003. The second lowest number seems to be 147, june-2003. The total wounded is given at 28451, over a period of 57 months yielding an avg. 499 wounded/month. Is it possible that the large difference between 23 and 499 may be a better indicator of circumstances on the ground in Iraq than the KIA numbers? SDF <strong>[Editor: yes, you may be correct. Another indicator that the pace of combat has bee reduced to the occasional IED.]</strong> Chuck,
