dtd to show alternate sub-nodes?

From: engwar <engwar1@-----.--->

I'm new to XML and have been given an XML document for which I need to
reverse-engineer a DTD.

There are nodes that have one of two different sets of children. I'm
not sure how to represent this in a DTD. We will have a bunch that
match the first two below, with ChildNode1 and ChildNode2 but then
will have a group that have different child-nodes.

How can I create a dtd to describe this?

Thanks.

    <childNode2/>

    <childNode2/>
</someNode>

<someNode>
   <childNode3/>
   <childNode4/>
</someNode>
