No U.S. Military Deaths in Iraq Last Month
For the first time since the American invasion of Iraq, an entire month has passed without a single United States service member dying, the New York Times reports.

"The milestone is particularly remarkable because it comes after 14 troops were killed in July, making it the most deadly month for the Americans in three years, and it has occurred amid a frightening campaign of suicide bombings and assassinations from Sunni insurgents that killed hundreds of Iraqis, resurrecting the specter of the worst days of sectarian fighting."
