Hurting and getting hurt

Hey I am making an FPS alien game. I have no clue how to get hurt when the "alien" hits me and how to make him die when I hit him. I have no script and would like one since I am a noob. Thanks

The tutorials do a good job explaining this. Here is the 3rd Person Platformer.

Basically here is the idea. The script below would go on the enemy

var damage : int = 5;
var damageRadius = 1;

var player : Transform; //drag the player here in the inspector. 

function Update () {
    if(Vector3.Distance(transform.position, player.position) <= 1) {

          //Alien Attacks
          player.BroadcastMessage("ApplyDamage", damage, SendMessageOptions.DontRequireReciever);
     }
 }

Create another script for the player with the following:

//This next function is a script on the player.
var health = 10;

function ApplyDamage(damage : int) {
     health -= damage;

     if(health <= 0) {
         Die();
     }
}

function Die () {
     //Respawn Player if wanted.

      Destroy(gameObject);
}
