BAGHDAD, Iraq - A U.S. Marine was killed Friday in fighting west of Baghdad,
while a soldier died the day before north of the capital, the military said.

The Marine assigned to Regimental Combat Team 5 died from wounds sustained

The military also said small arms fire killed a soldier from the 172nd Stryker
Brigade Combat Team Thursday in the northern city of Mosul.
