2414 soldiers have been killed in Iraq....Is this the progress that the Bush administration is always touting?:
A roadside bomb killed three U.S. soldiers south of Baghdad on Friday morning, U.S. military authorities said in a statement.
The soldiers were on a mission in Babil province when their vehicle was struck at 11:45 a.m., the military said. The military would not identify the soldiers until their next of kin could be notified.
The bomb struck a U.S. military convoy north of the city of Hilla, about 60 miles south of Baghdad, destroying one of the vehicles and setting it on fire, Capt. Muthanna Ahmad, of the Babil police force, said in an interview.
Two other U.S. soldiers died Thursday when their vehicle was struck by a roadside bomb in Baghdad, military authorities said.
