"US government agencies may claim copyright abroad While US government works generally are in the public domain in the US, they may be protected by copyright abroad. The feds may claim copyright protection for US government works in other countries depending on how those countries treat their own government works. So just be aware that US government agencies sometimes claim copyright in their works outside the US." http://www.publicdomainsherpa.com/us-government-works.html http://www.cendi.gov/publications/04-8copyright.html#317 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copyright_status_of_work_by_the_U.S._government Klaus Graf
