The good guys

Excerpt from Article 15-6 Investigation of the 800th Military Police Brigade, “Other Findings/Observations,” ¶4:

The individual Soldiers and Sailors that we observed and believe should be favorably noted include:

1. Master-at-Arms First Class William J. Kimbro, US Navy Dog Handler, knew his duties and refused to participate in improper interrogations despite significant pressure from the MI personnel at Abu Ghraib.
2. SPC Joseph M. Darby, 372nd MP Company discovered evidence of abuse and turned it over to military law enforcement.
3. 1LT David O. Sutton, 229th MP Company, took immediate action and stopped an abuse, then reported the incident to the chain of command.

• Later: Not just immoral, but incompetent
• Earlier: Same song, next verse
