    3. ONE MAN FROM WEST VIRGINIA A brigade of Iraqi soldiers are moving down a road when they hear a voice call from behind a sand dune. "One man from West Virginia is better than ten Iraqis." The Iraqi commander quickly orders 10 of his best men over the dune whereupon a gun battle breaks out and continues for a few minutes and then silence. The voice once again calls out. "One man from West Virginia is better than one hundred Iraqi." Furious, the Iraqi commander sends his next best 100 troops over the dune and instantly a huge gun fight commences. After 10 minutes of battle, again, silence. The Rebel voice calls out again, "One man from West Virginia is better than one thousand Iraqi." The enraged Iraqi commander musters 1000 fighters and sends them to the other side of the dune. Rifle fire, machine guns, grenades, rockets and cannon fire ring out as a terrible battle is fought.... Then silence. Eventually one badly wounded Iraqi fighter crawls back over the dune and with his dying words tells his commander, "Don't send any more men...... it's a trap. There are two of them."
