Americans dead: 4,287
Wounded: 30,182

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

As of February 1, 2012, there have been 1,773 American fatalities in the war in Afghanistan and 102 KIA in the broader Operation Enduring Freedom. More than 1,500 of these casualties have been the result of hostile action. 15,310 American servicemembers have been wounded in action during the war.[1]

At the end of May 2010, the number of American fatalities was reported to have reached 1,000.[2][3] By June 2011, the total number went up to 1,610. A majority of those deaths have occurred since the American military presence in Afghanistan was doubled beginning in 2009.

The highest number of American fatalities recorded in a single incident occurred on August 6, 2011, in which a transport helicopter was shot down killing 30 Americans, including 22 Navy SEALs.[4][5]

Bay of Pigs Casualties

Aircrews killed in action totaled 6 from the Cuban air force, 10 Cuban exiles and 4 American airmen.[21] Paratrooper Herman Koch Gene was killed in action, and the American airmen shot down were Thomas W. Ray, Leo F. Baker, Riley W. Shamburger and Wade C. Gray.[23] In 1979, the body of Thomas 'Pete' Ray was repatriated from Cuba.[51] In the 1990s, the CIA admitted to his links to the agency, and awarded him the Intelligence Star.[52] 114 Cuban exiles from Brigade 2506 were killed in action.[D]

The final toll in Cuban armed forces during the conflict was 176 killed in action.[B] Other Cuban forces casualties were between 500 and 4,000 (killed, wounded or missing).[C] The airfield attacks on 15 April left 7 Cubans dead and 53 wounded
