With our Joint Task Force Two personnel, one of the difficulties we have in talking about what they do is the very classified nature of their work and our requirement to protect their identities and that of their families. What I can tell you is that this fine, upstanding soldier, who was a communicator—he was a communications expert—was working on a communications tower and he slipped. It's as simple as that. His unfortunate accident is just as important as our other deaths. It is very unfortunate. Our condolences go out to his family, but I'm afraid I couldn't provide much more information than that.
