CNN 17,000 coalition casualties projection

Did anyone else see this on CNN

Casualties

1 in 15 soldiers WWI
1 in 15 soldiers WWII
1 in 13 soldiers Korean War
1 in 15 soldiers Vietnam
1 in 1500 soldiers Gulf War

But with the nature and location of this war casualties could go back to 1 in 15 soldiers or near that which was a possible 17,000 casualties

Makes me have a whole new level of respect for the soldiers fighting there

Still say he has to go, but after the gulf war, I never thought of the potential losses in those kind of numbers
