AP Corrects First Casualty Story
BERLIN (AP) - In an Oct. 11 story about casualties in Operation Enduring Freedom, The Associated Press reported erroneously that a U.S. soldier was injured in Turkey. U.S. military officials at the U.S. European Command in Stuttgart, Germany, and at MacDill Air Force Base in Florida said the soldier was injured while on support duty for the operation. He was treated in Turkey but the accident was in an undisclosed operation outside Turkey, the officials said.
