BAGHDAD, Iraq -- A bomb killed a U.S. soldier on a foot patrol Saturday
south of Baghdad, the military said, after a particularly deadly week
for U.S. forces in Iraq.

The soldier with the Multi-National Division in Baghdad died at about
7:20 a.m. Saturday due to injuries "suffered from a bomb explosion
while on a dismounted patrol south of Baghdad," the military said.

The military also announced the deaths of two other soldiers
from the same division Friday.

At least 2,520 members of the U.S. military have died since
the Iraq war started in March 2003, according to an Associated
Press count.

3. Rest In Peace, Soldier, and may your family be blessed during this
horribly difficult time.

Somewhere, heartless Dick Cheney is having his morning coffee and muttering, "Well, I guess his number was up," or something to that effect.
