Marines Backtrack on Iraq Chemical Arms Report ABC News Australia Sunday 13 April 2003 US marines reported on Sunday finding five canisters with a substance testing positive for chemical agents but backed off a claim of finding 278 suspect artillery shells. Officers with the marine's 1st Battalion, 5th Regiment said the canisters were found on Saturday in a Baghdad schoolyard among large stocks of ammunition. Corporal Chad Arva, a chemicals analysis specialist, said the contents of the canisters "tested positive three times for blister agents". But battalion officers backed off an earlier claim they had found likely blister agents in 278 artillery shells. The report had come from the battalion's operations officer, Major Stephen Armes, and his commander, Lieutenant Colonel Fred Padilla. But they later said they had been mistaken. CC
