He was the son of Boston University International Relations Professor Andrew Bacevich, who himself served in the Army. The elder Bacevich was the author most recently of "The New Militarism: How Americans are Seduced by War." He has described himself as an old-fashioned conservative opposed to the American military intervention in Iraq. In an e-mail to the family, the younger Bacevich's captain says he was killed south of Samarra, on a main highway. His unit had orders to look out for white sedans, and one came down the road. The soldiers stopped the car, and Bacevich was killed instantly when one of the passengers detonated himself.    From The WBUR Newsroom Trial for Ex-FBI Agent Opens BOSTON (September 08, 2008) WBUR's David Boeri speaks with Bob Oakes about the first-degree murder trial of John Connolly, the former FBI handler of James "Whitey" Bulger already serving 10 years in prison for racketeering.
