Army Exercise Prompts Calls to Police

BERLIN - Enough with the calls: the U.S. Army is telling troops at its barracks in Kaiserslautern, Germany, to stop badgering authorities about people wandering around in "Arab attire armed with AK-47s." They're role-players in a training exercise.

In an e-mail sent around Tuesday morning and published online by Stars and Stripes, troops at the Kleber Kaserne were told thanks for the vigilance, but no thanks.

The e-mail tells troops to "please stop calling the German police, military police, and hiding in your buildings."

U.S. Army Garrison Kaiserslautern spokesman Mark Heeter confirms the validity of the e-mail, saying the role players are part of a force protection exercise.
