    my guess: it's about one of the gulf of sidra incidents, as the title references the "line of death" set down by the libyan dictator gaddafi.

    -Times are not reported as XYZAhrs, they're just reported as XYZA (e.g. 0650 not 0650hrs). If anything, there might be a Z (e.g. 0650Z) to represent UTC or "local" to represent local time.
