The United States argues that the amount of general damages awarded was excessive and grossly disproportionate to the severity of plaintiffs' injuries. We review the district court's damage award for clear error. Trevino v. United States, 804 F.2d 1512, 1514-15 (9th Cir.1986), cert. denied, 484 U.S. 816 (1987).
