A clarification on the figures...
Of the 6,916 soldiers wounded in Iraq, almost half, 3,076, returned to duty within 72 hours. Obviously, if someone is returned to action in more than three days, it would not show up in this chart. Nor do the figures tell how many of those not returned to duty are permanently disabled. Do you have any figures on this?
The "Iraq Body Count" website is a pile of crap. Their methodology is flawed, as was noted almost as soon as the site was up, their data is anything but objective, and they make no distinction between casualties due to coalition action and those due to insurgents.
