Ok it was an accident. Like yesterday's accidental shooting of a German soldier dead. NATO sure trains its troops to be clumsy on duty.

Attention all NATO troops serving in Kosovo, point the barrel of your rifels AWAY from you. Don't they teach that in basic training?

You would be surprised about the number of NDs you can have, in all armies including the American.

Tiredness, boredom, reacting to action, even horse play, I have even had a ND myself.

ND = Negligent Discharge.

Russia has a hell of a lot of NDs per training cycle.
