On June 25, 1984, this Court ordered that the panel judgment and opinion reported in 729 F.2d 1120 be vacated and that the case be reheard en banc. After rehearing this case en banc today, by equally divided vote this Court affirms the judgment of the district court dismissing the action for lack of subject matter jurisdiction under Feres v.
