Does any one knows so far the total number of losses sustained by the alied coalition both in men (KIA's, MIA's, POW's) and equipment?

from the information that I have appears that the Marines sufered most losses than any other units in the fighting in southern Iraq. Can anyone confirm that?

May God bless the men and women of the US Armed forces involved in this operation and grant them a safe journey all the way to Bagdad.

38 dead in total between US and British forces. There were reports that 50 Marines were wounded yesterday or the day before when Iraqi's tried to surrender but then launched artillery.
