However, the man's reserve unit has been mobilized, he's on his way to Iraq,
and his wife is pregnant.

Must be an Army reserve unit. Marines would remove the developer's lungs
with an ice cream scoop.

I find this story more than passing strange. I live no more than
about 60 miles away over here in eastern Washington. I am pretty much
of a news hound and catch at least 3 local TV news reports every day
plus take the Spokesman Review newspaper that usually has good
coverage of this area. Odd that this is the first I have read (or
heard) about the situation. I would think it would be front page news
in the local sections.
