The White House earlier told reporters that six missiles were launched. It then changed the number to five. Later, it confirmed the first number had been correct. A defense official also told Reuters that the initial report that North Korea had fired six missiles was correct. |

| #3 Good catch Mike. Apparently, the taepodong-2 was very short-term. |
