    Law degrees come from graduate programs, pre-law is what you do as an undergrad, usually at a different place from where you eventually get your Masters in Law.

    I'd have to watch again, but I thought F-18's bombed the rock...But what you are saying isn't to far off, the US sells military hardware to many countries, how could an F15 tell a Marine Corp UH-1 Huey (I think they got a few left still) from one of the thousands out there not used by the US?

    You mean the main engines have no fuel, they are powered by the external fuel tank. The orbiter does have the two medium sized Orbital Manuevering Engines and 44 smaller thrusters. Those engines are still able to fire (unless for some reason they also run out of fuel), but the 3 main engines do not have fuel.
