Over 900 US Dead In Afghanistan To Date?
"Thus far, the USA has lost near 900 soldiers and officers in Afghanistan, and believe me this will not be the end of it. In Operation Anaconda alone, 177 American soldiers were killed and 16 helicopters shot down."

This seems to me a rather large number of US casualties and helicopter losses. On the other hand, it is the first attempt I am aware of to assess numbers of US dead in Afghanistan. If the report is true, then the US could be about to repeat the Soviet experience. It is easy to march on Kabul, but hell to hold the lawless country over a number of years.
