-Caveat Lector- Nuclear Launch Codes Left Behind Saturday, April 24, 1999; 6:21 p.m. EDT WASHINGTON (AP) -- President Clinton departed the NATO summit in such haste Saturday that he left behind perhaps the most important piece of luggage in the world -- the ``nuclear football.'' The president's military aide, who constantly shadows Clinton and carries the briefcase containing U.S. nuclear launch codes, was mistakenly left at the International Trade Center when Clinton's motorcade sped off 45 minutes early and without notice. The aide walked the 4 1/2 blocks back to the White House with- out incident. ``We're safe,'' said White House press secretary Joe Lockhart. He said Clinton left so quickly because his last summit meeting of the day broke up early and ``rather than wait for every- one to gather, he just took off.'' The pool of reporters that always travels with Clinton also was left behind. � Copyright 1999 The Associated Press DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion and informational exchange list.
