Started, Died, "Then sounded like a chain rattling"

Everything appears normal when the key is inserted and turned to the run position. The dash lights come on as normal, but when turned to the start position, there's not even a click.

I wiggled the shift lever back and forth a dozen times, even with the key held in the START position, with no effect.

What would the "rattling chain sound" be that my daughter said she heard? I was wondering if maybe it was a stuck starter solenoid that was chattering on the the flywheel... but I'm not familiar with the 7.3's starter.

With the Key on the ON position on the dash is the WTS (glow plug light) coming on?
