Have there been any females in the US military that have been killed in the war with Iraq?

I have not seen or heard of any and was just wondering.

Update:

I assumed there had been, but I have not heard of any. Thank you all for responding. And, God bless the USA and all of our military people.

    Edit: My mistake--84 from the US. 6 of the above are British.

    Yes, but the military likes to keep it a secret because they know the public doesn't like our women killed in war.
