US returns military liaison officers to Pakistan US military returns 2 liaison officers to Pakistan to improve coordination on Afghan border By The Associated Press

WASHINGTON (AP) ' The Pentagon says that at Pakistan's request, the U.S. military in Afghanistan has returned two officers to the headquarters of the Pakistani army's 11th Corps to help coordinate military actions along the Afghan border.

The move is a small step toward improving U.S. relations with Pakistan, which were partially severed last November after an American air attack on the Pakistani side of the border killed 24 members of the Pakistani army.

The U.S. liaison officers were withdrawn after the incident. U.S. trainers also were withdrawn and have not been returned.

A Pentagon spokesman, Navy Capt. John Kirby, said Thursday that there is still no Pakistani agreement to reopen land routes into Afghanistan that had been used to ferry supplies to American and NATO troops.
