precise grid references for the Household Cavalry patrol to double check its identity. The pilots convinced themselves that the orange identification panels were in fact orange rocket launchers. POPOV36 decided to attack, saying he is "rolling in" without permission from the Forward Air Controller. POPOV35 asked for artillery to fire a marker round into the target area to clear up confusion, but POPOV36 attacked without waiting for it. POPOV36 strafed the column for a second time, but still doubted its identity. The audio track includes debate over the identity of the targets and the order, from the FAC, to disengage identifying a likely "blue-on-blue" incident. The audio track also includes notification of one death and several injuries with the order to return to base. Subsequent audio indicates the pilots crying and their frustration. A statement released by the Oxfordshire coroner's office later confirmed that Walker was of the view that, being in the public domain, the video could now be presented as evidence without the approval of the US government, and that the inquest would resume on 12 March 2007.
