works did not immediately commit
themselves to showing it.

and children from Iraq flew aboard
a Pan Am jetliner Thursday to
North Carolina. The State Depart

was the last U.S. charter planned
from Baghdad, and it advised all
Americans wanting to leave to sign

all flights into and out of Iraq and
occupied Kuwait, except for mercy
missions.

members of the French Foreign Le
gion, headed to Saudi Arabia to join
the U.S.-led multinational force
upholding the U.N. trade embargo.

expected to ship out of southern
France in the sealift, France’s largest
in three decades.

Manfred Woerner, urged other
Western European nations to follow
suit. “Let me clearly state my per

day called about 7,000 reservists:
active duty.

360,000 soldiers in and around o:
rich Kuwait.
An American soldier was kilt
and two others injured in ajeepaci
dent Thursday in the Saudi Ante
desert, U.S. military officials sat
Their identities were withheld pet
ding notification of relatives. H
death brought to 17 the number
fatalities among American persot:
nel since Operation Desert Shit!;
began in early August, after dicin':
