RTO Trainer is absolutely correct. Iraqi Soldiers and
guerrillas who fall under the following definition are
considered Prisoners of War.

Wrong, but thanks for playing.


Then tell us why you think he is wrong.


The boys at gitmo are not POWs.

We are speaking here of Iraqi Soldiers and Guerrillas. Who,
for your information, are not held at the facilities in MCS
Guantanamo Bay. They are being held in EPW camps in various
locations within Iraq.

The people detained at Guantanamo Bay are, Individuals Not
of Armed Forces Who Commit Hostile Acts, IOW Illegal
Combatants.
As defined by the following from FM 27-10 Law of Land
Warfare.
Quoted as follows;
81. Individuals Not of Armed Forces Who Commit Hostile Acts
Persons who, without having complied with the conditions
pre-scribed by the laws of war for recognition as
belligerents (see GPW, art. 4; par. 61 herein), commit
hostile acts about or behind the lines of the enemy are not
to be treated as prisoners of war and may be tried and
sentenced to execution or imprisonment. Such acts include,
but are not limited to, sabotage, destruction of
communications facilities,
intentional misleading of troops by guides, liberation of
prisoners of war, and other acts not falling within Articles
104 and 106 of the Uniform Code of Military Justice and
Article 29 of the Hague Regulations.
82. Penalties for the Foregoing
Persons in the foregoing categories who have attempted,
committed,
or conspired to commit hostile or belligerent acts are
subject to the extreme penalty of death because of the
danger inherent in their conduct. Lesser penalties may,
however, be imposed.

A fact that you have conveniently disregarded.

I personally go check every fact and figure, when Steve

disagrees
with me. Of course, perhaps your ego is bigger than mine.



Then you missed at least one and probably two or three facts
when you did your checking.
As to egos, I wouldn't know. I'm just one of the guys who
captured and or processed some of the detainees held at MCS
Guantanamo Bay.
