UK Coroner Reopens Iraq Case
A British coroner on Monday reopened an inquest into the deaths of eight British servicemen who were killed when their U.S. Marine Corps CH-46 Sea Knight helicopter crashed during the second day of the Iraq war.
A British inquiry concluded that technical failure was responsible for downing the plane. But senior British officials rejected that finding and accepted a U.S. investigation which blamed pilot disorientation.
