Deadliest day in Iraq: 37 soldiers die
January 27, 2005 
Thirty marines and one sailor were killed when a military helicopter crashed in Iraq, and 6 other soldiers died in separate incidents, bringing the total number of American soldiers killed to more than 1400.
It was the deadliest day since the War in Iraq began in March 2003.
Deadliest Day: 37 GIs Die In Iraq:
This tragedy is especially upsetting since it seems that it might have been a malfunction or pilot error of some sort and not an enemy attack that brought the helicopter down.A U.S. military transport helicopter crashed in severe weather in Iraq’s western desert Wednesday, killing 31 people, most of them Marines, while insurgents killed six other American troops in the deadliest day for U.S. forces since the Iraq war began.
As Iraq prepares to vote for the first time amidst the highest level of violent attacks since 2003 and more soldiers die each day, I’m left wondering what the plan is for Iraq and when our soldiers will get to come home.
