Thursday, April 1, 2010 at 11:10AM
1. The Pentagon is denying yesterday's AP story that the U.S. test fired a submarine-launched ballistic missile in Saudi Arabia. Spokesman Bryan Whitman said the story was "just flat-out wrong." Whitman added that he told AP directly the story was inaccurate before it ran and is disappointed the wire-service didn't do more to correct the record.
2. Avast, mateys. The U.S.S. Nicholas has 5 suspected pirates in their custody after the possible-pirates' ship opened fire on the naval vessel off the Seychelles islands. After apprehending the crew, the U.S.S Nicholas ultimately sank the opposing ship. Whitman says that the U.S. is still trying to determine what to do with the detainees.
