It is estimated that total number of contractors (mercenaries) killed in Iraq is at least 917, along with more than 12,000 wounded
in battle or injured on the job, according to government figures and dozens of interviews.
The new contractor statistics suggest that for every four American soldiers or marines who die in Iraq,a contractor is killed. The contractor casualties were a symptom of a larger failure to send enough troops earlier to provide security throughout Iraq.
The military releases names and biographical information about its wartime casualties, but businesses are not required to provide such information, and the Labor Department refuses to do so,
They don't want us to know.
