LONDON (Reuters) - U.S. and British officials denied trying to hide the details of a friendly fire incident on Tuesday after a classified cockpit video was leaked showing U.S. pilots mistakenly killing a British soldier.Lance Corporal Matty Hull was killed by U.S. friendly fire during the second week of the invasion that toppled Saddam Hussein in 2003. A British coroner's investigation into his death has reignited questions over whether both allies are doing enough to protect their troops from friendly fire deaths.
