Rocket Grenade Kills U.S. Soldier in Iraq

June 19, 2003

Attackers fired a rocket propelled grenade at a U.S. military ambulance, killing one U.S. soldier and injuring two others on Thursday, a U.S. military spokesman.

It was the third reported attack on U.S. personnel or their offices in the last 24 hours.

The ambulance was transporting a wounded U.S. soldier to a medical facility when it was hit on a highway in southwest Baghdad.
