Three U.S. army personnel-two sergeants and a captain-describe routine, severe beatings of prisoners and other cruel and inhumane treatment. In one incident, a soldier is alleged to have broken a detainee's leg with a Baseball bat. Detainees were also forced to hold five-gallon jugs of water with their arms outstretched and perform other acts until they passed out. Soldiers also applied chemical substances to detainees' skin and eyes, and subjected detainees to forced stress positions, sleep deprivation, and extremes of hot and cold. Detainees were also stacked into human pyramids and denied food and water. The soldiers also described abuses they witnessed or participated in at another base in Iraq and during earlier deployments in Afghanistan.
According to the soldiers' accounts, U.S. personnel abused detainees as part of the military interrogation process or merely to "relieve stress." In numerous cases, they said that abuse was specifically ordered by Military Intelligence personnel before interrogations, and that superior officers within and outside of Military Intelligence knew about the widespread abuse. The accounts show that abuses resulted from civilian and military failures of leadership and confusion about interrogation standards and the application of the Geneva Conventions. They contradict claims by the Bush administration that detainee abuses by U.S. forces abroad have been infrequent, exceptional and unrelated to policy.

ARVN - the army of the republic of Viet Nam
As it turns out we were involved in Viet Nam much sooner than many thought. President Eisenhower was the first to put our military personnel in Viet Nam in the late nineteen fifties. We were there until Nixon finally called it quits in the early nineteen seventies. Many believe that we were drawn into the Viet Nam conflict because of an attack by North Viet Nam on a US American ship in the Gulf of Tonken when John Kennedy was President. This attack did not occur according to a later confession by General Westmorland however it was considered necessary to lead the US American public to believe we needed to enter that conflict.
