Jobs - Here's a really tough one

Tom Berg describes it in the Orange County Register:
"Over here, death waits in discarded rice bags. In motor-oil cans. Even in the carcasses of dead dogs on Iraqi roadsides. That's where the bombs lie hidden. Waiting. Most U.S. troops hope they never see an 'improvised explosive device,' or IED – the No. 1 killer of Americans in Iraq. But Marine Staff Sgt. Matt Bateman goes out looking for them every day. That's his job."
