Since 1991, there have been 97 British soldier casualties in Iraq.  4
of those casualties were directly due to friendly fire, while an
additional 2 were caused by friendly fire resulting in the crash of a
jet.  This means that 6.19% of British casualtties in Iraq since 1991
were caused by friendly fire.
