Riley declined to speculate about how many officers might have died, saying: “One is too many.”Riley said city officials expected that New Orleans’ population would shrink drastically because of Katrina’s hammer blow. Vessey described the dispute between the military and the media as a “huge mistake at the national level.” As a result, the military later eased its media restrictions and adopted Metcalf’s idea of a small “media pool,” in which reporters accompany military units on a rotating basis.Considered a successful military engagement on the whole, the Grenada operation did expose communication and coordination problems among the military branches, prompting the Pentagon to streamline its planning of multi-force operations.In 1985, Metcalf landed in more hot water when it was discovered that he and his staff had attempted to bring back 24 AK-47 automatic rifles from Grenada as souvenirs U.S.
