Two American soldiers face courts-martial for marrying Iraqi women. Sgt. Sean Blackwell and Cpl. Brett Dagen, both members of the Florida National Guard, fell in love with Iraqi doctors who were assigned to work with American troops, but military officials noticed the interest and tried to keep them apart. Blackwell and Dagen converted to Islam to get ready for their weddings, then slipped away while on foot patrol to evade the vigilance of their superior officers and exchanged vows at a double ceremony. Now they're both forbidden from seeing their wives, and--wait! It's Marlon Brando and Red Buttons! Donald Rumsfeld needs to go watch "Sayonara" before this gets out of hand.
