As military veterans who have served in every U.S. conflict since 1941, and their supporters, we have worked for decades to defend the national security of the United States and to uphold the honor, integrity and effectiveness of its military. We have greatly valued the opportunity to serve, and we remain committed to this critically important cause.
The reputation of the U.S. Armed Forces and related agencies were badly – we hope not irrevocably – damaged when the Abu Ghraib photos came to light. The rising number of serious allegation of abuses and deaths in custody raise serious questions concerning U.S. detention policy.
Given the range of individuals and locations involved in these reports, it is simply no longer possible to view these allegations as a few instances of an isolated problem. Yet none of the purported major or comprehensive investigations have assigned responsibility to any individuals responsible for policymaking nor held any commanding officer accountable for these abuses, other than the demotion, by one grade, of a Brigadier General.
