Default "Marshals kept off plane at Reagan"

Marshals kept off plane at Reagan
A team of federal air marshals was prevented from protecting a recent
flight from Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport because a gate
agent erroneously said they did not have the correct paperwork, say
marshals familiar with the incident.

I can't imagine why supervisors wouldn't have been called to resolve
this. It doesn't sound like this would be left up to a GA.

You would also think that, given this was DCA, that she would have known
they belonged on the plane.
