8000 ARTILLERY SHELLS FOUND
And then, only because a residient pointed them out.

Hmmm....the issue of weapons may not be closed.
Troops of the 4th Infantry Division have found an estimated 8,000 rounds of 152mm artillery shells in a town near Baghdad, the U.S. military said.

The soldiers from the 3rd Battalion, 16th Field Artillery were led to the cache in Khan Bani Saad by a resident, Maj. Josslyn Aberle said. The rounds are believed part of a cache hidden in the town on the northern outskirts of Baghdad before the U.S.-led invasion last March.
