BAGHDAD - Three marines died in separate incidents in Iraq's restive
western province of Anbar, the US military reported on Monday.
Two of the marines were killed Sunday in enemy action while a third died in
a "non-combat related" vehicle accident.
Iraq's vast, mostly desert, province of Anbar sees the majority of US
casualties in Iraq.
The latest fatalities bring the number of US servicemen killed since the
March 2003 invasion of Iraq by US-led forces to 2,712 according to an AFP
count based on Pentagon figures.
