Question--how do I find a list of soldiers killed in Operation Desert

Thanks in advance.

8. That one was practice for the next foray

We dusted off the casualty procedures, the air transportable hospital/field clinic/golden hour tactics, figured out how fer-shit we were in the equipment and body armor department, and fucked up a load of people with that anthrax shot, to say nothing of the shitty way we disposed of suspicious ordnance....and when we got that stuff straightened out (sort of, not totally) in went the Monkey for another go...

I wonder if his deddy is calling him DUMBSHIT to his face? Bet old Porgie doesn't wanna go "mano a mano" with him any time soon.
