U.S. Said to Find Iraq Nerve Agent Traces
(AP/ABC News) - U.S. troops found a dozen 55-gallon drums near Baiji in northern Iraq at a suspicious site protected by surface-to-air missiles. Lt. Col. Ted Martin of the 10th Cavalry Regiment said Sunday that one of the drums tested positive for cyclosarin, a nerve agent, and a blister agent which could have been mustard gas. Soldiers also found two mobile laboratories that contained equipment for mixing chemicals.
