U.S. deaths in Afghanistan rise

 

An Air Force transfer team carries a transfer case containing the 
remains of Senior Airman Ashton Lynn Marie Goodman early Thursday at Dover 
Air Force Base, Del. According to the Department of Defense, Goodman, of 
Indianapolis, Ind., was killed by a bomb near the Bagram airfield in 
Afghanistan. U.S. deaths in Afghanistan have risen to 65 so far this year, up from 36 over the first five months of 2008 — though U.S. and coalition troops have also killed hundreds more militants.
