WASHINGTON (AP) - President Bush hopes someone is held responsible for the U.S. military's mishandling of information about the death of former football star Pat Tillman in Afghanistan, the White House said Wednesday.
Bush did not learn about the unusual circumstances of the Army ranger's death until after the soldier's memorial service on May 3, 2004, said deputy press secretary Dana Perino.
Military officers at first said Tillman had died in an ambush, when in fact he was accidentally killed by fellow U.S. troops.
