- This AR 15-6 reports that several detainees were hit or beaten while in the custody of US soldiers. The accusations are that a Sargent told his soldiers to "Beat the Fuck" out of as detainee; and to "Kick their asses" before releasing the detainees without processing them in as detainees. It is unclear how many incidents occurred or how many detainees were involved.
