New Math: Contributions to Mathematical Science by the Cleptocracy

Sample Problem:
The supply convoy you are in turns a corner and the third vehicle is
hit with an RPG from the sandwich shop 2 houses from the corner on the
right. The driver is killed instantly and his backup is blown out of
the vehicle and impaled on a broken off road sign but survives. The
4th vehicle smashes into the third vehicle, throwing the 2 drivers
onto the broken up pavement, tearing the left arm off one and breaking
the back of the second who is subsequently killed by an AK burst that
hits her in the stomach and the face. The second vehicle turns sharply
left and sustains no hits. The lead vehicle triggers a roadside
device, dissolving both drivers. In the melee, the 5th vehicle smashes
into the 4th vehicle, breaking both women's backs, and tearing the
hand off an off duty third soldier. A rapid response team in the area
kills their interpreter, and 17 terrorists in the houses and shops on
the street..

Question:
You are tasked with doing the after action using the authorized
definitions. How many US combat dead and wounded should be added to
the Bush stats on the War?

(Solution:
4 Combat Deaths
1 Combat Injury

Here is the Analysis
1st (lead) vehicle= 2 combat deaths
2nd vehicle = No deaths or injuries
3rd vehicle = 1 combat death, 1 combat wounded
4th vehicle = 1 combat death, 1 traffic accident injury
5th vehicle = 3 traffic accident injured soldiers
