plaintiffs-appellants' Federal Tort Claims Act suit for lack of

subject matter jurisdiction. We have reviewed the record and find

* Local Rule 47.5 provides: "The publication of opinions that have no precedential value and merely decide particular cases on the basis of well-settled principles of law imposes needless expense on the public and burdens on the legal profession." Pursuant to that Rule, the Court has determined that this opinion should not be published. that the district court correctly found that the Feres doctrine

barred appellants' claim. The judgment of the district court is

affirmed for the reasons carefully and correctly set out in its
