I called the photo desk in AFP's DC office. One of the women I talked to just pulled it up and she sounded embarassed.
As I started to explain that it was an unfired round, she said, "I know what an unfired round looks like, I was in the military."
I didn't have the heart to ask her, "Our side?"
I think they're going to make an issue out of this one with the folks that put it out on the wire.

I didn't have the heart to ask her, "Our side?" Oh you should have! Or since it's AFP maybe ask her about the white flags that come standard issue to every French Army member.
Oh and BTW the US military standard issue 5.56 mm round is the M855 loaded with the SS-109 62 grain bullet which (hold on for it now!) has a green tip!
