He took five copies of an after-action report -- one during his September 2003 visit to the Archives and four during his October 2003 trip. He admitted to officials that he then used scissors to cut up three copies that night while at his office. At first he had said he had either misplaced or unintentionally thrown them away. He was reviewing the documents at the request of Pres. Clinton and in preparation for the 9/11 commission.
