Man 'finds US troop data' on MP3

Chris Ogle, 29, said: "The more I look at it, the more I see and the less I think I should be looking."
The files included names and telephone numbers of American soldiers, according to reports by TV New Zealand.

Some included a warning that the release of its contents is "prohibited by federal law".
