A private security contractor sits in the door of a helicopter as it patrols the skies over Baghdad February 6, 2005. An unprecedented lawsuit stemming from the gruesome killing of four American civilians in Iraq is slowly making its way through the U.S. legal system, closely watched by companies estimated to field up to 100,000 contractors alongside the U.S. military. (Bob Strong/Reuters)
