American soldiers rarely get a chance to study a dead Mahdi Army fighter. The insurgents usually duck in and out of soldiers lines of sight. The soldiers are curious to see the human face of their enemy, especially when they're dead. In accordance with army policy, dead are left on the street for Iraqi's to recover and bury, "They clean up their own." said one soldier. (c) Ashley Gilbertson © bpb
