MEMORANDUM FOR Commanding General, 1st Armored Division

SUBJECT: Chapter 10 Request,

1. Request that you approve request for a
Chapter 10 for the following reasons:

a. has never been in any trouble in the entire 7 years
he has been in the service, to include article 15s.

n
o

b. - has an exemplary service record (see attached good

soldier packet). He was chosen to deploy ahead of the rest of I p
. He saved the lives of numerous Iraqi citizens by

;74,

destroying DPICM submunitions and other UXOs from neighborhoods in

ta. 0
tz14-,
Iraq. He was also on the First Response Team for the United Nations

1/4rD
bombing and was involved in evacuating casualties. He destroyed over 10,000 VS-50 AP mines and over 500 DPICM Cluster munitions. He was 0 chosen to deploy with 2nd Squadron within 96 hours over all NCOs in his company. His service record is filled with situations where he risked his life for others. In this particular case, he was involved in the stripping of detainees because he did not want to "rough them (.0 up" as ordered or kill them like the guards had done prior. It seems 0
0
ironic that those who shot looters in violation of ROE have been allowed to continue their military careers while ; is rD facing such severe consequences for the offenses charged.
c.
His immediate chain of command recommended that he receive an 0 article 15. The Regimental Commander specifically stated in the preferral packet that the case would be returned to the squadron commander for disposition. However, when that commander attempted to take action, the case was removed from his hands. Furthermore, both the Company Commander and Squadron Commander recommended approval of a chapter 10 on 24 December 2003. They both a.:1 (-$ stated that they would support a General Discharge given service record and dire family situation.

d.
has a four month old baby that was born with two
holes in his heart. He also has a two year old son who is being
treated at the moment for what the doctor's suspect is Leukemia.
Approval of the chapter 10 will deprive him of the medical benefits he
desperately needs to care for those children.

2. Based on the circumstances, the accused requests approval of the
chapter 10 request with a General discharge. AR 635-200, Chapter 10,

001821
DODDOA 027235

AFZA-JA-TDS
SUBJECT: Chapter 10 Request,

specifically authorizes such a discharge even though it is rare.

nderstands that he can receive an Other Than Honorable
discharge from this request although he simply requests that a general
discharge be considered. Thank you for your consideration of this

matter.

MEMORANDUM FOR COMMANDER, 2 ° ARMORED CAVALRY REGIMENT
SUBJECT: Response to 15-6 Investigation
During Operation Scorpion Sting our whole platoon was attached to Eagle Troop. We assisted them in
cleaning up the streets from copper wire in their sector. We spent two days doing that, and we would take
at least 15 tuck loads of copper wire to the back of the camp each day. About one week later, we got a call
from Cougar x-ray to go Link up with Eagle Troop to go pick up some copperwire. When we got there we
loaded up the copper wire into our trailers, and headed back to the camp were we had put the copper wire
from the week before. As we arrived to the camp, we saw several Iraqi citizens running from were we had
put the copper wire the week prior. lad I chased
after them We didn't catch them, so we headed back were everyone else was at. About 20 minutes later
fold the platoon sergeant that he wanted to go after them again. He said ok. When .
got back from going after the looters, he casae back with five detainees. We down loaded them and had
them help the other two unload the trailers. I stayed at my truck because I was hurting from the heat. I also
explained to my soldiers why we need to give the detainees water. Then, after we had them finish down.
loading the trailers, we took them to the CMOC.
That day and said they saw me'shook a detainee. The statements were false, I did
not shock a detainee. After brought bank the five detainees, was on the 27 truck as
a Iv2249 gunner, ' stayed at his truck.like I did because he also was hurting from the heat. All of
our trucks were about fifty feet apart at the site facing the opposite way from each'other pulling security.
never once, that I saw, got off of the truck he was on to do anything. I never saw
come around my truck after arriving back at Camp Marlboro. He was a nrior heat injury so he really did not
move out of his truck unless it benefited him: I feel that both and have had it out for
me sense they both got moved from my squad.
Periodically we would go in the back entrance of the camp M see if we could catch looters in the back of
the camp. two
two occasions we detained 'Caters. The first time, we took them to the CMOC were we attempted to hand them over to Bulldog elements. Bulldog 6 told my platoon sergeant that he didn't want them here. Then he told my platoon sergeant to "take them out back and beat the fuck out of them." I thought he was serious because every sense we had crossed the berm, it appeared that he had it out for the Iraqi people. We took the detainees to a building in back of the camp, and a team leader in the platoon told the platoon sergeant if he wanted to teach them we should strip them and send them on there way. We could have shot them because they said that they were breaching the outer perimeter. At the time we were way beyond the outer, perimeter. We didn't make the outer perimeter until the first week in August. The ROE was to only shoot when you felt your life or another soldier's life was threatened or when fired upon. The Bulldog element was shooting the looters I thought that was to extreme at the time. Therefbre, the platoon sergeant didn't want to shoot them and that is why they got stripped.
,
July 3, 2003 was the day that brought back a detainee to the warehouse where we lived. I don't
now why he did that, or what he was thinking when he brought him back. That day we went to go get cokes for the 4 th of July party at the camp. When we headed back to•the camp we entered into the back gate because I believe the front gate was closed due to the threat con. As we entered the back gate, there were
Iraqi people running from were the copper wire was at. As we started to chase them I got a flat tire, so my truck stopped and we waited for the other trucks. We headed back to the camp and I went to get the sparec had pulled in with a detainee in the
tire so my squad could fix the flat tire. When I came backback of his truck. We unloaded him and nut him next to the wall. The platoon sergeant sent everyone to
: said that he would watch him while we go to chow. ThechoW sense it was about to be over.
001835
nnnnr) A no7,-)An
two soldiers of mine also stayed back that day so they change the tire. When soldiers in the platoon found
out that brought back the detainee they were going back there to take pictures. I told them to
stop. I don't knoW what happen while I was at chow, but when We got done with chow we took the detainee
to the CMOC. When you come in the way we enter into the building, you can not see to the other half of
the warehouse due to a carno net up between were we parked our trucks and were we live. So when I came
back I couldn't see if anything was happening around the trucks.
I don't understand why only two people in the platoon said they saw me do something I didn't do.
Everyone else in the platoon said they didn't see me do any of those things.
I admit to participating in the stripping of an Iraqi national. I know this was wrong. I am sorry for this and am fully prepared to take responsibilityfor my actions and the consequences. I have not beat, kicked, or otherwise physically abused Iraqi nationals at any point in time during my timein theatre.
I have been in the Regiment for six of the seven years I have been in the Army. I deployed ahead of the Regiment with 2nd Squadron. Due in large part to my expertise in engineer operations and ability to make quick and sound judgments, I was selected as one of 10 engineers to accompany the squadron. My service
nb
to the country and Regiment is a source of great pride for me. Hoek forward to continuing to serve both as

SUBJECT: Response to 15-6 Investigation
I have worked with _ _ _ _ for approximately one year. During that year he served as the second sound leader, performing well above the standards. When 2/2 ACR received deployment orders, .
was chosen to deploy ahead of the rest of the f. He was selected based on his lmowIedge on engineer task and his ability to make quick, so-und decisions. These were characteristics needed to provide initial advice to the Squadron Commander andthe TAC. saved numerous lives of Iraqi citizens by destroying DPICM submanitions and other UXO's from neighborhoods in Iraq. He had always had the best interest of the locals in mind.. The platoon started assisting Bulldog Company with looters on Camp Marlboro's "back 40" around mid June 2003. During this time - i was involved with detaining several looters from the back 40. On one occasion, that I was present for, 3-4 looters were detained. We attempted to hand them off to Bulldog personnel and were told to take the looters out scare them, rough them up and release them. I return to our platoon AC and sent the others trucks out to release the looters. Just a day or two earlier a looter had been shot and killed on the back 40, therefor the PSG and made a decision to make the detainee strip. This was done to embarrass the looter so he would not return to be shot and possibly killed. The decision may not have been the right one politically, but was effective on saving the lives of those looters. .•,- realizes that the wrong decision was made and is prepared to accept the consequences of his actions.

MEMO4NDUM FOR COMMANDER, 2 ARMORED CAVALRY REGIMENT
SUBJECT: Response to 15-6 Investigation
During th' first week of June 2003, we first detained looters 'from the back of Camp Marlboro. At the time we (EN 2 ,EN22) took the looters to the CMOC, they told us they could not take them at the time, and told us to take them out and scared them. I told my translator to tell the looters they are going to the jail. After we told rn they are going to jail, we took them to their house next to Camp Marlboro, turned them over to their family, and witnessed the detainee's father beat them front of us. When•I saw this, I told all my -cE squad lea ers when we detain any looters we will take them back to their family, The second time wedetained 1 oters, I took them backto their house located down an ally. I didn't feel comfortable going 0
"_,
down the lleyway and I didn't want my platoon to get ambushed, so. I decided that the next time we
detained l oters I wasn't going to take them back to their house.

C7. 0
. In mid June 2003, my platoon was on a mission to retrieve copper wire and drop off in the back of Camp Marlboro!, We again detained looters from the back of Camp Marlboro. Instead of taking them to their
Z
house, I too
k them to the CMOC. At the time our ROE was not to shoot the looters. Only time we were
ro
authorized to shoot or kill anyone was when we felt our life or another soldiers' life was in danger, i.e.; rzld someone is pointing weapon at you or get shoot at. That's what I understood about our ROE. It wasn't true
1-d
because Bulldog element shot and killed one looter, and wounded at least two other people. When they shot and killedi the looter, they put the dead body on the hood of a vehicle and took the body into Al-Thawra. Cl)When I tolok the looters from the back of Camp Marlboro I could have shot and killed them when they tried
CD
to run, but. I didn't. I attempted to turn them over to Bulldog elements and let them take care of it. When I
walked inlo the CMOC (same location as Bulldog TOC) I saw , and told I have. detained the
looters fo them. At that time told me, "just take them back and beat the fuck out of them". I CD
was shackled at what he just told me to do. _I was standing next to me and heard what was
said. I walked out and told the squad leaders what - had just told me. I was going to just take. CD
them out f Camp Marlboro and release them. At that time , said; if you want to teach them a 0
lesson, w y don't you strip them and send them away. When told me I really wasn't thinking
about stri ing the looters, but while I was taking the looters to the back of the camp, I realize these looters
will re and possibly be killed by Bulldog elements. I didn't want that to happen to them, so when we
stopped a the back of Camp Marlboro there was an empty building we went to. I wanted to just release
them but feared that they would return. I made a bad decision and told o strip the detainee. I
know thatilt was not the right thing to do, but at the same time I wanted for the detainee to never want to
return to dur camp to steal. I never saw the same looters again after that striping.

On 3 July ;2003 we had a mission to pick up sodas for the squadron 4 th July party. When we were coming
back frorrj picking up the sodas we saw looters at the back of Camp Marlboro. We tried to detain them, but
they got away. EN22 had a flat tire, so I told EN22, EN23 to return back to camp. When EN23 aurae in to

AO, told me he had detained a looter after all. I told him we would just take him back later
our
since dinnler chow was almost ending. I told them to go to the chow, then we will take the looter back to the
CMOC. didn't want to eat so he stayed back and -watched the detainee. After I returned from

as I was bouncing a soccer bail on the detainees'
chow, I was sitting on my cot, told me . what the hell he was doing and told him not tohead. I 4n t to the back of the AO and asked was back at our AO, I told
dot that again. We took the 'detainee to the CMOC. When the entire platoon
them we vimuld not abuse or miss treat detainees. When we do pick up any detainees in future we will just

take them Ito the COMC.

Around mid July 2003, while we were returning from the RTOC, I saw a person on the top of the telephone pole cutting wire. We stopped and detained them. I was with EN26, SIGO, when ,I detained the individuals and took them to the CMOC turning them over to Bulldog elements.
On 19 July 2003, we were going to the ASP. Navy a person pointing to a vehicle and copper wire on the sidewalk. It looked like someone stole the wire. I told EMI, EN22 to stop. When I walked up with my translator to try to find out where they got this copper wire, my translator told me it was stolen. I was trying to talk to the Iraqi citizen Who owned the vehicle to find out where he got this wire from when he Tried to push me or grab me. I felt like he was going for my weapon. I grabbed him and told my Driver to hand cuff him. While we were trying to put the handcuffs on, .I heard gun shots coming from my left. I told
;tay and cuff the detainee. When I walked over to the vicinity the gunshot came from, I saw a person with an AK-47 ready to shoot again. The individual was aiming at EN2I, I fired 3 shots and took him down. When I walked over to the body, I saw that it was a female, she was trying to get to the AK-47 she dropped. took the AK-47 and took her to Camp Marlboro. i gave the shooter first AID, and she Iived. Later we found out, from our translator who escorted the women through the medical channels, that the woman's brother was the shooter. After he ran she thought he was shot and brought out another AK47. I feel that if I had not taken the actions I did, that she would have shot and possibly killed members of my platoon who could not see her. I know that what I did was wrong, I made a bad judgement cats on stripping the looters. I am ready to take responsibility for my action.

was assigned to 84th Engineer Company as 2nd Platoon Sergeant about two weeks after I took over as the Platoon Leader. Since his first day, he has mentoredand coached me to be a leader. His emphasis on taking care of the soldier and living the Army values has set a base for'my development as an officer. During Operation Iraqi Freedom, has demonstrated his ability to react to any situation, ranging from helping a depressed soldier to calming upset citizens of Iraq. When the platoon started detaining looters, was the first to make sure they were treated right. He would give water to the thirsty and when informed of possible mistreatments, he talked to the platoon to make sure it would not happen. For a brief period looters were being shot when looter on the back of Camp Marlboro. When told to rough up, scare, and release detainees felt it necessary to embarrass them to the point they would not return to loot and possibly get shot. His decision was to make be detainee strip and walk home nude. The decision may not have been the best, but it worked. r is aware that he made a bad choice, but in that choice had saving the lives of the looters in his mind. He is a great asset to the platoon and should not be punished to the point of losing his position as Platoon Sergeant.

SECTION IV - FINDINGS (para 3-10, A)? 15-6)
The (investigating officer) (board), having carefully considered the evidence, finds:
find that soldiers of 2nd Platoon, 84th Engineers Company have committed detainee abuse.

The first incident was on or about the middle of June 03. An Iraqi civilian was detained in the fields behind Camp Marlboro. The Iraqiwas trying to steal copper wire. He was arrested by members of 2nd Platoon. The detainee was then brought to the Civilian MilitaryOperations Center (CMOC) for processing into the detention center. Upon 2nd Platoon's arrival at the CMOC, NNIIII0 told the
that he did not want any detainees at the CMOC. It was better for him to take the detainee away and to release him, recommended that the detainee be scared, beaten, or whatever the Platoon wanted to do to him then decided to take the detainee to an abandoned building behind Camp Marlboro. When they arrive , wadi.*
took the detainee inside the building. They yelled and screamed at him..gave an order to....1111k .to remove all
e clothing of the detaineelremoved the detainee's clothing released the detainee after all of his clothing wasremoved. Exhibits M, T, & U support these facts.
The second incident occurred a few days to a week later. The Platoon had detained two looters trying to steal copper wire. They took thedetainees to the, same building behind Camp Marlboro 411.1.1.11. took the two detainees into the
building.111.111.1111Koldel/Maito remove all of the clothingR the de --es_
taine The detainees were released once all of their clothing was removed. Exhibits A, D, E, M, 0, Q, T, & U support these facts.
The third incident occurred on the 3rd of July. The Platoon was tasked to get sodas for the Squadron's fourth of July party. On their way
• back to Camp Marlboro with the sodas, they were tasked to chase looters away from the back fields. ENG23 captured a looter. ENG23__ . was then told to take the detainee back to the Engineers barracks on Cam Marlboro. ENG23 arrived at the barracks and the detainee was removed from the back of the truck and laced up against the wall, bounced a soccer ball off the head of the detainee. He was
reprimanded by both_and In addition, ' admitted to hitting the detainee and stated in his sworn
• statement that others also hit the detainee. Exhibits B, D, E, G, H, 3, K, L, M, 0, Q, R, T, U, Z, & AA support these facts.
:et
• Three soldiers wrote sworn statements of the use of an M34 blasting device to shock Iraqi detainees. Exhibits B, D, I, W, & Y support
. these statements However, during further investigation, the accused denied any use of the M34 blasting device to shock any Iraqi

SECTION V - RECOMMENDATIONS (para 3-11, AR 15-6)
In view of the above findings, the (investigating officer) (board) recommends:
At- a minimum the unit:

a.
Enforce patrol and mission debriefs at the Troop level at a minimum. For more significant events a debrief should be conducted by the S-2.

b.
Reprimand for his poor judgement, lack of battlefield composure, and loss of military discipline and professionalism as senior noncommissioned officer. Continued performance like this could result in an uprising of the citizens of Iraq against US Forces

c.
Refine and clarify the ROE and treatment of detainees. Conduct a stand down day to refocus the Troops and establish clear procedure for processing detainees.

d.
Appoint an Investigating officer in commensurate grade or higher to conduct an inquiry of1111.111.101 alleged actions.
