Marines bury Afghan casualty with honors
U.S. Marines buried an Afghan anti-Taliban fighter with military honors after he was killed by an errant American bomb. The Afghan, who was not identified, was one of six anti-Taliban fighters killed when an Air Force B-52 dropped a one-ton satellite-guided bomb that also killed three Army Green Berets. Twenty Americans and 18 Afghans were wounded.
