Back in the United States, a Maryland Army reservist who was to be deployed to Iraq next month has died after a 14-hour standoff with police. Army Reservist James E. Dean had already served 18 months in Afghanistan when he was told last month he would be sent to Iraq. A neighbor says the deployment order sent Dean into a spiral of depression because he didn’t want to go back to war. The standoff began after Dean barricaded himself inside his home with several weapons. He was shot after exchanging gunfire with police.
