http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/nationnow/2012/01/-lewis-mcchord-army-equipment.htmlAbout 100 soldiers from Joint Base Lewis-McChord in Washington state remained confined to base Monday as U.S. Army officials tried to trace $600,000 worth of missing high-tech equipment.
The equipment includes sophisticated rifle scopes, laser sights and night-vision equipment -- gear described by Army officials as "sensitive" but not necessarily dangerous to the public.
