Memo in response to a request for information concerning the effectiveness of interrogation techniques approved by the Secretary of Defense. These techniques went beyond those permitted by the Army Field Manual. The heavily redacted memo includes a timeline of techniques employed, the information obtained as a result, and justifications for the techniques' use. It concludes that the techniques are "within the spirit and intent of humane detention" and comply with applicable law.
