Jody Moth makes sure soldier's lamp is okay

BAGRAM AIRFIELD, Afghanistan — Staff Sgt. Daniel Clark loved nothing more than connecting and video chatting with his wife back in the states. Not long ago, the deployed NCO came off a particularly tiring shift and called her up. That's when he saw it.

"Something big was creeping around behind her," said Clark. "I nearly panicked and yelled for her to watch out."

"Her explanation made sense," said Clark, "but I just had this... uneasy feeling."
