I need to update the count for the day. Twenty. 20.
Twenty little brothers – maybe sisters – dead. In one day. And if anybody says they died protecting Old Glory, Apple Pie, Truth and Justice, I’m going to scream. In fact, you can assume I’m screaming anyway.
Metaphor 
Yeah, it kept going up. I guess they count the young bodies by when they were wounded. So if a kid gets shot on a Saturday, suffers and dies on Sunday, he or she goes on Saturday's count of wasted lives.
Twenty-five, actually.http://icasualties.org/oif/prdDetails.aspx?hndRef=1-2007
