Pvt. Byron W. Fouty, 19, of Waterford, Michigan is a "bright kid" and was chided by his comrades as the "new guy," his platoon commander saysNEAR YUSUFIYA, Iraq (CNN) -- One of three U.S. soldiers missing after a deadly Iraqi ambush had been chided by his comrades for being "the new guy," and another taught himself Arabic while in Iraq, their platoon leader recalled Friday.
You're never too 'new' or too young to die fighting in Iraq. Well, unless you're with the Iraqi security forces and in that case, you get 4 to 5 years of training.
