Report by Brigadier General Charles H. Jacoby into detainee operations in Afghanistan. The purpose of the report is to ensure that forces assigned to the theater of operations understand the concept of humane treatment and are providing humane treatment to detainees in accordance with the principles of the Geneva Convention. The report is also to ensure that there is adequate supervision and that there is a competent authority to supervise the interrogations, techniques and approaches authorized by the Detainee Operations SOP dated 27 March 2004 when interrogating detainees.

CFC-A AO DETAINEE OPERATIONS
REPORT OF D1SPECTION
26 June 2004
SECTION I. INTRODUCTION
1.
This general officer led inspection of Combined Forces Command — Afghanistan (CFC-A) Area of Operations (AO) detainee operations was initiated at the direction of the Commander, CFC-A, in FRAGO 48, dated 18 May 2004 (Enclosure A). The C.ommander, Combined Joint Task Force (CJTF) -76, subsequently appointed BO Charles H. Jacoby Jr. to lead this inspection (Enclosure B). The inspection was conducted beginning 19 May 2004 and continued drough 26 June 2004. Consistent with specific instructions contained in the appointment memorandum, this inspection relied upon the support of the CTIF-76 staff and their efforts to conduct collateral reviews and evaluations, and also considered previous and contemporaneous inspections and investigations of detainee operations conducted in this theater.

2.
This inspection's primary purpose was to ascertain the standard of treatment provided to persons detained by US forces throughout the detention process from apprehension to release or long-term confinement Initially, five focus areas defined the approach of the inspection: command and control (C2); medical treatment provided to detainees;

• collection area procedures; Soldier special insnuctions and general orders; and compliance with international humanitarian law as it applies to this conflict Early in the inspection it became apparent that infonnation and intelligence collection needed to be specifically addressed as a sixth focus area. The handling of detainees and intelligence and information collection are the two sub-processes of detainee operation.s. The authorities, procedures, and standards under which these processes are carried out set the conditions for the overall standard Of treatment detainees receive in US custody.
3. While there was a near universal understanding in CJTF-76 that hurnane treatment was the standard by which detainees would be treated, guard awareness and application elstandard operating procedures (SOP) was lacking. Comprehensive SOPs do exist 'in theater, but dissemination, implementation, and a corresponding appreciation for assigned responsibilities were inconsistent across the AO. Failure to establish and enforce standards throup,hout the detention process creates friction on the process, which -increases risk of detainee abuse and frustrates effective collection arid dissemination of

p,
intelligence and information. A lack of focused training for Soldiers responsible for both
handling arid collecting intelligence and information also increases the risk of potential
abuse.
4.
Detainee operations throughout the process have, in the past, been focused almost exclusively on its contribution to a counter-terrorism mission. On today's counter­insurgency battlefield where the population is the center of gravity and the direct object of our security and reconstruction efforts, detainee operations must become more discriminate and supportive of tite overall mission. In this vein, persons under US control are not objecu on the battlefield. They instead become put of the fabric of the battlefield where humane treatment is not just the standard but essential to successful operations.

5.
Definitions (Enclosure C).

6.
Conditions — Within a month of the Transfer of Authority (TOA) between the outgoing 10th Mountain Division and the incoming 256 Infantry Division (Light). alleptions of detainee abuse surfaced in Iraq. Amidst concerns about the scope of these issues, this inspection was initiated within a command actively engaged in major combat operations and extensive civil-military operations. Approximately one-third of the bases visited as part of this inspection were established within the past three months or were under construction. All had either recently conducted a relief in place (RIP) or were in the process of a RIP. This same period also witnessed an on-going shift operationel focus from active counter-terrorism operations to complex counter-insurgency and stability operations.

SECTION EL SCOPE
7. This inspection focused across the CFC-A AO on the full spectrum of detainee operations as conducted by personnel assigned to, or working in cooperation with, CJTF­
76. In addition to considering the viability of current regulatory guidance applicable to detainee operations, printarily that guidance found in the C...177-180 Detainee Operations SO.P, dated 27 March 2004 (Enclosure D), this inspection examined the current state of detainee operations in the field through eyes-on visits to all bases with facilities used to support detention operations (Enclosure E).
8. Consistent with the appointment order, this initiative was an inspection In name and spirit — the focus of this inspection WU current theater detainee opetstions, and not the investiption of detainee abuse alleptions. As part of the inspection process, units were provided training that emphuized current policy and areas of concern and, where required, given guidance on appropriate changes to local procedure and facilities.

9. Of specific interest in this inspection was the humane treatment of detainees. In accordance with US policy, members of Al Qaeda and other terrorist organizations and Taliban fighten captured in Afghanistan do not qualify as Enemy Prisoners of Ws:(EPW). It is US policy, however, that all detained individuals be treated humanely and, to the extent appropriate and consistent with military necessity and security requirements, in a manner consistent with the principles of the Geneva Conventions (Enclosure F). As a result, the reference point for this inspection was humime treatment rather than strict adherence to each provision of the Conventions.
SECTION 111. REFERENCES (Enclosure G)
SECTION TV. OBSERVATIONS
SteMiti
10. 'The consistent and ovenur.hing observation that flowed from this inspection.was that forces assigned to this co:amend understand the concept of humane treatment and are providing humane treatment to detainees in accordance with the principles of the Geneva Convention. 'There have been exceptions, and allegations of detainee abuse have been substantiated. It is, however, clear that the priorities of safety for soldiers and guards, safeguarding detainees, and gaining short/long term intelligence can be accommodated within the framework of humane treatment as a standard (Enclosure H). Additionally, it was found that although the CTIF-180 Detainee Operations SOP, dated 27 March 2004, provides a foundation for the conduct of detainee operations throughout the Afghanistan theater, it does require revisions to:
a.
confirnt interrogation approaches and techniques that are authorized in this theater,

b.
better defbae facility standards,

c.
describe acceptable standards of conduct throughout the detention process,

d.
provide for clearer guidance to capturing units concerning the proper collection and control of personal property and evidence obtained as a result of operations in the theater, and

3
9 4 7
DOD JUNE
e. clarify that the SOP applies throughout Afghanistan and to all other units, orpnizations, end agencies working under the direction or in coordination with CJTF-76.
11. While theater forces understand the need for humane treatment and unit processes
observed during the inspection were consistent with the spirit of extant doctrine, there
was otherwise a.consistent lack of knowledge regarding theater detention operations
guidance u it applies to detainee capture, proceuing, evidence collection, chain of
custody, detention,. interroption, movement, end repauiation. Only one-third of the
bases had i copy of the current detainee opemdons SOP, which provides at least
minismun insigIn into all of the above areas (excluding repatriation procedure, capture
guidelines for evidence and chain of custody). To fill this perceived void, many bases
attempted to integrate recently circulated draft theater policy, simply applied Army
values, or followed the "Golden Rule" during their detainee operations. This situation
has been further oomplicated by recent theater-wide turnover of combat and combat
support units and-the accompanying lou of experience. Lack of thoroughly authorized,
disseminated, end understood guidance and procedures create oppontmities for detainee

abuse and the loss of intelligence value throughout the process.
12.
Accofding to 100 % of the units inspected, there is significant need and demand for local intelligence that b not consistently rnet by current theater detainee operations. Time frames to process detainees are focused on getting detainees who meet Secretary of Defense (SECDEF) detention criteria to the rear, while collection of battlefield intelligence is largely an ad hoc program based on leader experience and the capabilities of assigned personnel (Enclosure I).

13.
Even though detainee pmcessing standards were established with speeding detainees who meet SECDEF detention criteria to the rear in mind, there is no consistent propam designed to ensure the integrity of capture data or evidence. Even where detention kits are available detainee ta

basis for detendon is often poorly documented. As a result, quality interrogation is impeded and justification for detention limited. This occasionally leads to longer periods of detention than is Justified.
14. Although SECDEF criteria for detention art generally known and understood, the approach to detaining personnel differs substantially across the theater. In some areas, ferw persons are detained =len there is a specific pre-existing Justification or a threat to the force present. In other locations, cordon arid search opemtions yield large numbers of detainees without apparent application of specific criteria. There i3 an inverse correlation

IS. Very significantly, there is inadequate authority for the interrogation teclunques and approaches authorized by the Detainee Opemtions SOP dated 27 Much 2004. However, consistent with the observation that only one-thir' d of the bases had the SOP, it was genemlly not guidance icnown or relied upon in the field. In fact, there is a void in the availability of interrogations guidance in the field, and interrogation practice is as inconsistent and varied across the theater as are detention methods and procedures. There is some correlation between individual training and experience and interrogation methods being used, but there is little correlation between location and techniques employed. Inconsistent and unevenly applied standards in the detention and interrogations process increase the possibility of the abuse of detainees, especially forward in the battle area. Ironically, that same weakness in standards degrades the intelligence collection process with negative effects growing the further a detainee moves through the system.
16. Most units, while having received basic cultural training before deployment, were not truly attuned to the cultural sensitivities they encountered. While most units know not to enter a Niosque unless invited or mission dictates, and some units specifically request female Soldiers to accompany them on missions to assist with the search of female detainees, there are situations where the cultural standards are not known and thus not adhered to. For example: situations where men are unnecessarily detained in front of their families, or caused to be seen naked Alen not required, or where dogs have been used in the past to intimidate or humiliate. These situadons ma afoul of Afghan culture and create unwarnusted misperceptions about our actual intent to provide security and stability for the peopde of Afghanistan. iitm s •.% I g .41 •

Specific Obtervation4
l8. Specific observations as they relate to key functional areas delineated in FRAGO 48 include:
a. Command and control - inconsistent throughout the theater. Likely accentuated by the general lack of theater-wide detention operations implementing guidance and instructions, there is a direct correlation between assigning responsibility for base/unit detainee operations to a single leader and the integrity of the process. Bases and units with a designated NCOIC/OIC of detention operations do it better; those with personal

clear unity of coma:land. Centralized C at the CJIF-76 level aho needs to be evaluated, and a clear lead established between military police arid military intelligence. Currently, there is no one individual below the CJTF-76 commander who is clearly responsible for the coordination, supervision and execution of detainee operatiow at the CJTF level.
b." Medical treatment - a favorable aspect of detainee operations across the theater. Detainees were uniformly offered medical evaluation and treatment far better than they had ever received. While treatment was expansive, efforts to sensitize medical exams and physical inspections to cultural norms need improvement There has been no evidence to reinforce the need for rectal or hernia examinations, and little or no justification for requiring full-body nudity as a put of exams or inspecdons. Guidance =wiring these processes from our procedures has been issued as part of this inspection. All locations clearly understcod that medical exams or inspections are not part of any interrogation method. Fail= to establish an appropriate standard for the medical screening and care of detainees could create perceptions of or opporttmities for detainee abtne.
c. Collection area procedures - up to the point of initial. detention in a forward facili roeedures are c units need better
conamanders created local facilities and adapted detention procedures to available expaience and expertise. All wanted more guarantees that battlefield Intelligence would be a by-Foduct ofdetention.
d. Compliance with international humanitarian law standards as they apply to this conflict - although Conunon Article 3 of Geneva does not apply to either Al Qaeda or

Taliban detainees, it is US policy that we will treat detainees humnnely and, to the extern
appropriate and consistent with military necessity, in a manner consistent with Geneva.
The nature of detention operations is complicated and unpleasant, but providing humane
treatment is the accepted standard across the theater (Enclosure J). Detention facilities
across the theater differ markedly, just as facilities for assigned military petsconel are
different, and some are significantly better than others. All provide the basics of food,
shelter; and medical care, but few could not find ways to be improved. Some facilities
were constructed out of bed frames, others with Hesco, tentage, lean-tos, and some in
new or renovated buildings. Sanitation facilities at approximately 50% of the locations
were only marginally acceptable. Suggestions for improving these facilities were issued
as part of this inspection. By far, the most conunon *corrections involved hnprovh4
ventilation and defining standards for how detainees should be held (e.g., goggled,
shackled). Many facilities, while adequate for =tuner, won't be acceptable during the
winter. As the theater matures and conditions for our forces improve, we have an
opportunity to create corresponding improvements in our detention facilities.

SECTION V. FINDINGS
Sasnsal
19. CFC-A AO detention operations are functional, but lack cohesive direction, and are constrained by friction at critical junctures. Specifically, in addition to the previously discussed lack of comprehensive detention guidance, there are significant problems associated with timely aircraft movement of detainees, lines of communication critical to both processing detention approvals and receiving detainee operations guidance, andjoiot

use of detention facilities. Current titeater guidance is drafted clearly, but is not
comprehensive or well known outside the task forte headquarters. In addition, a
comprehensive means of disseminating guidance, training, and inspecting detention
operations needs to be developed.
Bnecial Findings
20. Special findings focus on specific phases of detention operations including initial capture and detr.ntion, release, short/long tenn detention and movement within theater, trawler to military detention facilities at Guantanamo Bay, release and repatriation, interrogations, and overall process management (Enclosure M). All phases and C2 of the process suffered from a lack of lcnowkdge of current theater policy and procedures.
a. Initial capture — policy on initial capture is lacking. Units 1st theater regularly
conduct cordon and search operations, but some detain few if any persons, while others

generate orras to document capture data; few if any MILS had standardized detention kits available to ensure a consistent approach to identifying evidence and recording data. Screening individuals initially detained is done on an ad hoc basis dependent on resources. Some units bring the screening resources to the scene; others take those detained with them to field detention facilities. While wtderstanding conditions on the battlefield vary greedy from operation to operation and region to region, standardization can help ensure humane treatment and better intelligence collection. Additionally, when battlefield conditions permit, working ind coordinating with Afghan officials enhances our ability to avoid conflict with cultural sensitivities, particularly concerning Afghan women and children.
b. Field detention facilities — there is no set structural sts.ndard for field detention sites. Some units use adsting facilities what they can, while others build structures out of plywood or Hesco barriers. Consistent with CJTF-I SO Detainee Handling Guidance, issued in February 2004 (Enclosure N), once transferred from the capture site, detainees should be housed in secured facilities that, as a minimum, has a living area big enough tostand up in and lay down 'without coming into contact with bare ground or another detainee, allows for direct sunlight to enter the confinement area, allows air to circulate into the cell arca, provides overhead cover to prevent rain and snow from entering, and is located near a latrine. While sorne facilities were clearly better than others, only minor modifications needed to be made during the inspection to bring all facilities into

As they would when processing any detainee, C.ITF-76 forces document the physical condition of trazuferred detainees at time of acceptance, but supporting documentation marding these detainees is inconsistent. Given that an detainees in our custody will have the opportunity to tell their story to the ICRC, CJIF-76 will invariably be left trying to explain any allegations of abuse or maltreatment made by a truisferred detainee with limited ability to produce evidence In response. elTF-76 forces need to understand the criteria for accepting transfers and from whom transfers are authorized. Also, as Afghan insdtutions mature, alternatives to detention by US forces, like arrest by civil authorities, needto be considered.

h. 'Command and control and process management — C2of the detainee operations
process requires additional emphasis at all levels. At some locations substantial attention
i3required. For example, commtuuiers at some locations had little or tto involvement in
detainee operations; others had security lapses or careless attimdes towards detainees.
Those forward collection points that have desipated a "warden," a single point of
contact who is in charge of these operations at the local collection point, are AM well.
Those that don't have intleS. Clearly, a holistic approach to detainee operations, starting
at the top, needs to be considered. Expertise to provide custodial care and oversight over
detainees resides in the Reserve Component Internment and Resettlement (I/R) units.

i. Detainee movement within the theater - the transfer process IS slow due to the lack of dedicated transportation assets. Designated ring supply flights are often interrupted by operations or weather conditions, and grotmd transportation is extremely limited by poor infrastructure and security concerns. Additional delay is also caused by the &Uwe of capturing units to properly document and transfer capture data and evidence to the detention facility.

conditions where abuse may be more likely to occur. For example, conventional forces
may fail to atop use of abusive interrogation techniques by other forces when they don't

l. Chain of custody — other than transfers between chain of custody processing is inconsistent and non-standard. There are inconsistent methods and a variety of forms, soma locally produced, used to document chains of custody for detainees, detainee property (to include money), and documents.

Troops in contact (TIC) is an event of high stress and emotion that may result in the detention of individuals. If a TIC results in detention, an oppontmity for abuse arises as a result of the stress and emotion. There is a need for additional individual and collective pre-mobilization training that emphasizes doctrine, the 5 S's (search, silence, segregate, safeguard and speed to the rear), and cultural sensitivity. This will allow those who come into initial contact with detainees to respond in accordance with their training vice emotion and stress. Leadership and supervision, in addition to tmining, are the keys to success in detainee handling at the point of capture.

h.
Improved interrogation training leading to the certification of all interrogaton will improve intelligence gathering and disseminadon of actionable intelligence as well as improve the detainee screening process. Interrogators need training on Afghan culture, traditions and history to be able to pt the most intelligence from detainees. Additionally, combat commanders at all levels need training on interrogation and detainee chain of custody to ensure that unit actions do not interfere with or negatively affect the interrogation of detainees. Recommend that each commander's right seat ride include case studies on the interrogation process and how the capturing unit can best facilitate and positively irnpact the process.

should include adequate room to lay down and stand up without touching the walls or

23. For incoming units of CTTF-76, this inspection occurred at the right time. Tbe observation.s. findings, and recommendations of this inspection wilt serve as the basis for an action plan that will improve theater detainee operations throughout the detention
process. While humane treatrnent of detainees is in fact the understood and pracdced standard in the theater, lack of clarity regarcling authorities, standards ofdetention, and standards of Interrogation, provides for sufficient friction in the process to create opportunities for detainee abuse and impede effective intelligence collection and dissemination. While the ctrrrent detainee system we observed is being executed in a

professional and diligent manner, and the current standad operating procedures had been updated in the last 90 days, the expanding scope and complexity of detainee operations, constant tumover of fomes, the emerging role of the Afghan government, and the changing mum of the battlefield require a more rigorous process, better defined standards, and clearer authorities.
24.
An action plan must now be developed based upon the approved recommendations of this inspection along the lines of operations of forces, training, technology, facility upgrades, and C2 and management, Improvements can be made that will reduce the risk of detainee abuse and enhance mission accomplishment Many of the key components of a revised system are already in development and are listed in the amerces to this report.

25.
While this inspection revealed no systematic or widespread mistreatnsent of detainees, opportunities for mistreatment, our commitment to keep faith with the American and Afghan people, the fact of ongoing investigations, and a maturing battlefield argue for modifications to the current detainee operations pttscess On the emerging counter-insurgency battlefield of Afghanistan, creating the security environment needed to rebuild Afghanistan and enable Afghan government institutions requires...detainee operations that both garner and disseminate useful intelligence and recognize the centrality of the Afghan people in the struggle to create a stable Afghanistan. In this view, mistreatment of detainees anywhere in the process works directly contrary to US and Afghan national objectives.

26.
US detainee operations can only be normalized by the emergence of an Afghan justice and cnirections system that can assume the responsibility for the long-tenn detention of low level enemy combatants currently held by the US. The detention process is fundamentally designed for intelligence collection purposes. To that end,tactical commanders continue to place great value on intelligence derived from battlefield questioning and screening. At the operational level, and to a leuer degree the strategic level, detainees ars of important intelligence value. The value of continuing to keep Low-level enemy combatants in custody is simply to keep individuals that represent a proven threat to coalition forces off the battlefield. Thb is a function that can and should be undertaken by the Afghan government With detainee input to the system coming from multiple US, agencies across Afghanbtan, the detention challenge will grow over time. Despite efforts to improve the procesi, the preu of a grol.Ving detainee populadonwithout an Afghan solution or ccatirined transfer to GTMO will continue to create the potential for bad choices to be made at several points in that process.

27.
CJTF-76 has committed Itself as an organization to the short and long terra actions required to improve detainee operatiozu across the CJOA. In addition to initiatives that improve the effectiveness and efficiency of detainee operations, C.ITF-76 will consider

• 1 May 2004 From: Colonel mmanding Officer, CTF Stonewall To: Battalion ommanders and Provincial Reconstruction Team Commanders
Subj: Handling of Persons Under Control (PUCs)
Ref (a) Recent press releases from Iraq on the mistreahnent of PUCs

1. Commanders, following is my guidance for the handling of PUCs:

L We will condone to treat all PUCs professionally within the guidelines of CJTF 180 directives and the Geneva Convention.
b.
We will not dishonor the American military through the mistreatment of PUCs.

c.
We cannot and will not alloy/ Ely of our personnel to compromise himself or hernelf or CTF Stonewall by mistreating PUCs.

d.
We will not stand idly by if we witness mistreatment of PUC3 by other American or Coalition Forces.

e.
Any mistreatment of PUCs must be reported via the chain of command or directly to the Stonewall COC and SJA.

1. ye cannot afford to be detracted from our mission by an incident involving inhumane or humiliating treatment of PUCs.
2. Therefore, review CJTF 180 FRAGO 274 regading the handling of PUCs in this AO.
L Stonewall fortes have a duty and an obligation under applicable international law . to ensure that persons captured or detained by US forces are treated htunanely and not subject to torture or czuel, humiliating, or degrading titIttMCDt.
b.
Detainees will be provided reasonable protection from the elements by placing them in interior bolding areas or providing overhead protection from the sun and rain.

c.
They will be provided medical attention, .food, water, blankets, clothing and foot coverings to protect them from the elements.

d.
If sensory deprivation is required, provide blindfolds or darkened goggles,
earmuffs or earplugu.

e.
Hoods, sandbags, burlap sacks are not authorized at field holding sites or during later movement to another PUC facility.

f.
PUCs will be allowed to practice basic hygiene and given adequate access to latrine facilities and time for prayer.

g.
Interrogations will be conducted in accordance with DoD guidelines.

3. I expect each tutit to plan ahead and have on band sufficient supplies w provide for PUCs buic needs.
a.
It should not come as a surprise to us after operating in this AO that many PUCs will require certain items such as blankets, clothing, etc. in order to comply with this guidance.

b.
As professionals, we must plan ahead for these actions. If you need supPort. mY staff stands ready to assist you.

c.
Nothing speaks louder than daily Professional Military Conduct in the execution of all our duties!
