1. The Prologue

"Alright sweetheart. We are near Najaf." A soldier said, holding a camera with an Iraq town in the background. "I'm not allowed to say exactly where." He looked over at another soldier. "Hey Dwight! Say hello to Jenny!" He called.

The other man came over. "He's cheating on you!" Dwight shouted.

"Nice." The first soldier said.

"With a camel, a drunk slutty camel." Dwight said with a boyish grin.

"Alright." The first soldier said with a smirk. "It was one time, okay, and the camels been texting me, but it's over I promise..."

A back up alarm went off.

"Hello, PSD." Dwight said.

The camera pointed towards a truck with men around it.

"See those guys?" The first man asked. "Private contractors. They make seven hundred bucks a day. I make seven."

Dwight butted into the picture. "Yeah, but you know what they gotta do? They gotta-" Dwight was cut off by shouting.

Soon, gunfire rang out.

Dwight was hit several times in the chest.

"Shots fired! Shots fired! Go, go, go red!" Someone shouted.

Dwight let out a groan.

The camera fell and focused on the first soldier, then it cut.
