Good morning texas booster. Keep in mind this statement is about American Forces and only on Utah Beach and doesn't include the many Allied Forces that were killed with us.
Here is another report:
The breakdown of US casualties was 1465 dead, 3184 wounded, 1928 missing and 26 captured. Of the total US figure, 2499 casualties were from the US airborne troops (238 of them being deaths). The casualties at Utah Beach were relatively light: 197, including 60 missing. However, the US 1st and 29th Divisions together suffered around 2000 casualties at Omaha Beach.
How many Allied and German casualties were there on D-Day, and in the Battle of Normandy? (halfway down page)

Hiya Sam. I saw a quick post and run message from one of our FRiends in Iraq.
got the package today. Sorry I havent been on much, the last few weeks have been hectic. We lost a soldier on the 1st of May. Spc Trevor Wine of California. He was killed by a roadside bomb near Tikrit. With that and all the convoys to keep supplies moving you can imagine how it has been here. Please give my regards to everyone, and thanks again for everything. I will write when I have more time.
Steve
