WASHINGTON
U.S. military investigators have concluded that a U.S. soldier killed at the outset of a major battle against al-Qaeda forces in Afghanistan last March was hit by U.S. forces, not hostile mortars as originally believed, a senior U.S. official said yesterday. Chief Warrant Officer Stanley Harriman, 34, was the first of eight Americans killed in Operation Anaconda.
