An Army Ranger killed in Iraq on Monday during combat operations may have died as a result of friendly fire. . . . “Initial indications are that Duncan’s wounds may have resulted from friendly fire,” the release issued Wednesday said. http://www.armytimes.com/news/2008/06/army_rangerkilled_061108w/
