I did an extensive search and could not find any report of USMC casualties. The Marines were in Haiti very briefly - then, the peacekeeping was turned over to a multi-national force including Brazil and France.

The 2004 Haiti coup d'Ãtat was a regime overthrow that happened as the result of conflicts fought for several weeks in Haiti during February 2004. It resulted in the premature end of President Jean-Bertrand Aristide's second term, and the installment of an interim government led by Prime Minister Gérard Latortue and President Boniface Alexandre.
