          out for a medivac (attached to the Regiment) but the answer they
          received according to Rudd was that the pilots "were having crew
          rest." After the medics spent hours trying to save the soldier's
          life and then stabilizing him, he ended up dying because they
          couldn't get a medevac.

               By this time thelunit had alot of excess rations built up, so
          they were able to distribute it amongst the Shiite rebels and
          civilian refugees.        got diareah and basic shit-chills while

          DEP
               Tyler says that when his soldiers found out about going to
          Saudi, "a majority of them were excited, looking forward to the
