Afghanistan
Canadian military deaths hit 40
2006-10-08
KANDAHAR, Afghanistan (CP) - A roadside bomb killed a Canadian soldier Saturday as he rode inside a Nyala armoured truck, a blast-resistant monster hailed by soldiers and brass alike as the ultimate protection against such attacks.

Trooper Mark Andrew Wilson, of the Royal Canadian Dragoons, based in Petawawa, Ont., was the 40th to die in Afghanistan since 2002, matching the number of British soldiers killed in the country since the Taliban were overthrown. Only the United States has suffered more deaths, with 341.

#2  You could go with johnh. Or John. Or India John (for your expertise on the subject), or... When there got to be so many steves that they formed an army, one became SteveS, one went to SuperHose, and one found it necessary to highlight his words in what he now admits is salmon-pink. ;-)
