The U.S. death toll in Iraq has surpassed the number of American soldiers killed during the first three years of the Vietnam War. This according to a Reuters analysis of Pentagon statistics. Nearly 400 U.S. troops have been killed in Iraq since the beginning of the invasion. More than 58,000 U.S. military personnel died in Vietnam before the war ended in the mid-1970s.
