BAGHDAD (Reuters) - Unknown gunmen have shot and killed a Marine west of Baghdad, the U.S. military said on Wednesday.
The Marine was killed Tuesday while carrying out operations in Anbar, a large province west of Baghdad that includes the volatile cities of Falluja and Ramadi.

No further details were given.

At least 1,020 U.S. troops have been killed in action in Iraq since the beginning of the war.

... I believe we are now at 1298 DEAD in Iraq. In spite of the way the US military parses numbers, dead is DEAD!
