Except that soldiers don't go "MIA" in Iraq any more:

      DoD Announces Army Soldiers as Whereabouts Unknown

     The Department of Defense announced today the identities of four
     soldiers listed as Duty Status Whereabouts Unknown (DUSTWUN)
     while supporting Operation Iraqi Freedom.  They have been
     unaccounted for since May 12 in Al Taqa, Iraq, when their patrol
     was attacked by enemy forces using automatic fire and
     explosives.  They are assigned to the 4th Battalion, 31st Infantry
     Regiment, 2nd Brigade Combat Team, 10th Mountain Division, Fort
     Drum, N.Y.

            Reported as DUSTWUN are:

            Sgt. Anthony J.  Schober, 23, of Reno, Nev.
            Spc.  Alex R.  Jimenez, 25, of Lawrence, Mass.
            Pfc. Joseph J.  Anzack Jr., 20, of Torrance, Calif.
            Pvt.  Byron W.  Fouty, 19, of Waterford, Mich.

     Search and recovery efforts are ongoing, and the incident is
     under investigation.

     For more information in regard to this release the media can
     contact the Coalition Press Information Center-Baghdad at (703)

"DUSTWUN."  Really.
