IN Tribute

22-Sep 2 The U-S military reports two more American deaths in Iraq. Both soldiers died overnight in Anbar province, the western region that has been the scene of some of the worst trouble of the war. One died in a roadside bomb attack. The other was killed by small arms fire. Spc. Scott P. McLaughlin, 29, of Hardwick, Vt., died in Ar Ramadi, Iraq, on Sept. 22 as a result of enemy small arms fire.
