4,000

Here is a link to a mosaic made from the photos of the 4,000 U.S. service men and women killed in Iraq. It depicts the man who is responsible for sending these people to their deaths and the man who has been quoted as saying that he has no problem keeping our troops there for another "100 years" if he is elected president. Another 100 years? We have lost on average 800 troops per year for the last five years. With that said, another one hundred years would bring, using history as a guideline, another 80,000 American deaths. That brings the total to 84,000 deaths assuming consistency. Sounds like a great idea. I bet you can make a pretty large mosaic with 84,000 faces. See here.
