Possibly that site has a problem, or

that article is no longer on the server.

The long and short of it was about two Iraqis
approaching a Marine position refusing to stop
and were shot and killed. Both were wearing
homemade explosive belts.

In a house search, the Marines also found several
homemade explosive belts, and a carton marked 82d
Airborne filled with US issued desert uniforms.
The article didn't further explain if the carton
was from a US supply point or just a carton, or
how many uniforms were involved.
