	I was really impressed by the news I heard this morning.
Not only are the Marines in Greneda adept in killing Cubans and
whomever else is the enemy, but they also terribly efficient
at killing each other! Instills such confidence. Seems that
many of the Americans killed in Greneda died from US gunfire
and a helicopter accident. Some died because of drowning
in some accident. Now I know the Marines are excellent fighting
men. But what kind of funny weeds are they finding on this
little island to make them do such things. Don't tell me that
this sort of thing is to be ecpected.  If that's true we can
expect more Americans to die at the hands of each other than
at the hands of the enemy. Somehow it doesn't seem fair to
the poor guy and his loved ones. At least he could die in
combat and make his family feel like he died for a cause. 
	Could someone out there give me a good reason for
all these accidental deaths. And I don't want to hear
anyone tell me I'm being overly critical. I'm just insanely
curious.			S.Badian
