How many children have lost a parent to the Iraq War?

Question

I was trying to find out how many kids the 4145 soldiers who have died in this war left behind. I want a current number. I kept finding numbers from several years ago. If you could give a source that would be great. Thank you.

Answer 1

97 American women, including seven single mothers, have died in Operation Iraqi Freedom. The average age of these female casualties is 27.
