How many military personnel have died in Iraq war?

According to the latest report by the Watson Institute of Brown University's Costs of War Project, as of April 2022, there have been 7,057 U.S. military deaths in the Iraq War. The project also estimates that there were 33,984 U.S. military personnel who died after serving in the war due to post-deployment health issues, for a total of 40,731 deaths.

It's important to note that these numbers are estimates and may change as more information becomes available. The Costs of War Project relies on multiple sources and methodologies to compile their data, including publicly available data from the U.S. Department of Defense, the Department of Veterans Affairs, and other sources, and they conduct their own statistical analyses and modelling to arrive at their estimates.
