For three days straight, Marines stood watch over the
body of 2nd Lt. James Cathey, taking periodic breaks in a room within the
mortuary, where Staff Sgt. David Rubio rubbed his eyes after a nap. Rubio was
sent to represent the Marines from the University of Colorado, where he first
met Cathey. 'I've never stood that kind of duty,' Rubio said. 'When you're in
college, you're so detached from what's happening in Iraq...The more we talk
about it the harder it seems to get.'
