BAGHDAD, Iraq: A roadside bomb killed one U.S. soldier and wounded another
Sunday west of Baghdad, the military said.

The blast occurred as the Multi-National Division — Baghdad patrol was finishing
its early morning security mission west of the capital, leaving one soldier dead

pending notification of relatives.

The death raised to 43 the number of troops who have died this month. At least
2,931 members of the U.S. military have died since the war started in March 2003,
according to an Associated Press count.
