Military Mistake Caused Data Leak

Anick Jesdanun of the AP writes in an article on ABC News:

The U.S. military command in Baghdad produced the report in Adobe Systems Inc.'s popular Portable Document Format, or PDF, and posted it on the command's Web site Saturday. Its investigation cleared American soldiers of wrongdoing in the shooting of an Italian agent in Baghdad.
