U.S. Army soldiers, Cpl. Bernard Kintoki (L) and
Spc. Aloysius Goodshield, from the 588th Engineering Battalion,
take their position during a pre-dawn raid in the village of Ain
Lalin, Iraq, early August 11, 2003. U.S. soldiers
piled out of Black Hawk helicopters to raid the remote village
near the Iranian border where they believed one of Iraq's top fugitives
had used as base to plot guerilla attacks on U.S. forces. Monday's
pre-dawn raid on the village 100 kilometers (62 miles) northeast
of Baghdad failed to capture its main target, a former regime officer
who is on the U.S. list of 55 most-wanted Iraqis. REUTERS/Murad
