Abu Ghraib MPs quietly coming home
The 372nd Military Police Company has been moved to Kuwait to await their homecoming. So far, seven members of the unit have been charged with prisoner abuse at Abu Ghraib.
Linda Comer, wife of one of the MPs and "family readiness coordinator" for the company, has been told by the military that "the Army plans a quieter homecoming for the 372nd than most returning soldiers get."
If quoted correctly, Ms. Comer seems rather clueless.
"This is what the soldiers want, I think. They want to be anonymous, I think. Why, I don't know. They didn't do anything wrong. They just want to come home," said Comer....
If photos of the atrocities were being passed about on CD and through email, it's a bit difficult to imagine that most of the company didn't know what was going on.
