U.S. orders
most Iraqi
diplomats out
WASHINGTON (AP) — The
State Department on Saturday or-
dered Iraq’s ambassador to send
most of his staff home by Tuesday,
saying the move was designed to
prevent Iraqi diplomat^ from or-
ganizing terrorist attacks.
Howwer, the department said
the United States was not breaking
diplomatic relations with Iraq.
“Our primary objective is to
reduce Iraq’s capability to or-
chestrate terrorism in the event of
Gulf hostilities,” the department
said. "The government of Iraq has
repeatedly threatened to initiate ter-
rorism against” Americans and
other nationals of countries taking
part in Operation Desert Shield.
Ambassador Mohammed al-
Mashat was summoned to the State
Department and handed a
diplomatic note instructing him to
reduce his staff to four people, in-
cluding himself, the department
said.

Ann bombed with letters from GIs
DEAR READERS: As if I don't
have enough mail! I am now being
inundated with letters from Saudi
Arabia - but I'm not complaining. I
love it. Here's a sample of what I've
been getting these last two weeks:
Dear Ann Landers: My name is
Roger Fowler. I'm on the USS
Midway in the Persian Gulf. Today
we had a mail call, and I received
nothing from home but I did get
some great letters from your
readers. In Get, we all got letters
from the eighth grade kids in
Kinkaid School in Houston, thanks
to you. God bless you, Ann. You
have helped make a lot of people
happy.
Dear Annie: Your Operation Ann
Landers/Desert Shield has made a
big hit around here. I'm a staff
sergeant in the Army, in charge of a
section of 44 soldiers, and the mail
from your readers has boosted our
morale like you wouldn't believe.
The troops exchange letters and talk
about them for hours. The people
who have written range from grade
school kids to college students,
housewives, great-grandmothers,
construction workers, stenographers,
secretaries, typists and computer
analysts. We can't get enough of
them. - STAFF SGT. PAUL J.
GASTELUM
Dear Ann: Something really neat
happened to me. I wrote to "any
soldier or sailor" as you suggested
and today I got a terrific letter from
a guy in the Air Force. It was real
cool. I never dreamed that an ordi-
nary girl from Rochester, Minn.,
would get such a fabulous reply.
Thank you. » COLLEENE
HAVLIN
Dear Ann: My husband and I
Ann
Landers
were touched by the lovely response
we received from Lance Cpl. Duane
Buckner of the Marine Corps. He is
from Hannibal, Mo., and also lived
in Iowa City. He wrote, "We are
proud to be here and will do our
best for our country." My husband
and I had tears in our eyes when we
read his letter. — MARLENE
BERKOVITZ, CRYSTAL, MINN.
Dear Ann Landers: Oft behalf
of all the men and women who are
currently assigned to the Gulf
region, I want to thank you for
asking your readers to write to us.
We have received the most beauti-
ful, caring letters of support I'm sure
some of the people who are writing
will be steady correspondents
and perhaps lifelong friends. -
LANCE CPL. GARY A. GAF-
FREY, USMC
Dear Ann: Your readers are the
greatest The letters and packages
that have arrived have made life
bearable. From the bottom of my
heart, thank you. -- DAVID G.
DAVIS, SPECIALIST, U.S. ARMY
513TH MI BRIGADE, APO, N.Y.
09852.
Dear Ann Landers: I am writing
from my tent which is about 100
miles into the desert of Saudi
Arabia. I answered a letter today
from a person in Oregon who wrote
to "Any Service Member" as you
suggested. People have written to
say, "What do you guys need? Please
let us know." Such kindness and
cathy®
generosity makes us feel as if we're
truly appreciated. Please print the
address again for those who missed
it the first time. You can't imagine
how much letters from the States
mean to us. - JSG STEVEN A.
