Update:
From The Navy Times:
'Ten U.S. Marines killed near the Iraqi city of Falluja last week had been at a promotion ceremony and were not on foot patrol as initially reported, the U.S. military said on Tuesday.
The Marines were in a disused flour mill on the outskirts of the city to celebrate the promotion of three soldiers, a military statement said.
As the ceremony ended, the Marines dispersed and one of them is thought to have stepped on a buried pressure plate linked to explosives that caused the devastating blast.'
Now theres a whole lot of questions to be asked about this. Why the coverup? Footpatrol? Promotion Ceremony? Flour Factory? Set-up?
