Video 'shows friendly fire death'

A catalogue of errors were responsible for the "friendly fire" death of a British soldier in Iraq, it has been reported.
The Sun claims to have obtained a cockpit videotape recording showing the moment that a US jet launched two devastating attacks on a British armoured convoy, killing Lance Corporal of Horse Matty Hull.
In the recording, the pilot of the second American plane involved in the attacks says after their mistake is realised: "We're in jail dude", the paper reports. The other pilot then weeps, saying: "God dammit", it adds.
The Ministry of Defence initially told L/Cpl Hull's family the recording did not exist but it found its way into the hands of Oxford coroner Andrew Walker, who is hearing the inquest into the soldier's death.
The MoD refused to comment on the alleged contents of the videotape.
Last week Mr Walker adjourned the inquest in frustration at what he said was the MoD's failure to get the permission of the American authorities, who are said to own the tape, for him to show the recording.
The Sun claims six errors led to the attack near Basra in southern Iraq on March 28 2003. Four other British soldiers were injured.
These included that on several occasions the pilots either questioned or appeared to question the orange panels on top of the armoured vehicles which were being used to identify them as coalition, rather than Iraqi, forces.
However, the conclusion is reached that the orange panels are rocket launchers.
L/Cpl Hull, 25, from Windsor, Berkshire, died in the incident and four other members of the Household Cavalry Regiment were injured.VIDEO BELOW
