Narrative:
About 5;000 ft on climb out while getting vectors to our assigned route we lost the right engine. I flew the aircraft while the captain ran the QRH and talked to the flight attendants and passengers. I took delay vectors until he was finished then we set up for the ILS back into our departure airport. We landed without further incident; had the firemen check us out and once we knew the airplane was ok we taxied to the gate.
