Nigerian General Festus Okonkwo (3D R) leads the ECOWAS advance military
delegation on a tour of the John F. Kenndy Hospital morgue, where the
bodies of civil war victims are piled on the floor for want of space, 31
July 2003. The delegation is preparing for the deployment of an advance
force of 1,500 Nigerian troops to stanch the conflict. For the moment,
the United States will provide money, but not Marines, to back the
peacekeepers, according to an administration official. (Photo credit
