A British controller who mistakenly called in an air strike from a U.S. Air Force fighter on a group of British soldiers will not be prosecuted, British newspapers reported Saturday.
The British Army Prosecution Authority decided against taking the unnamed senior noncommissioned officer to a court-martial because officials thought there was little chance a trial would produce a conviction.
