#2 Isn't there some Army reg that says field grade officers are subject to recall even after retirement? Call her up and give her the chance to show how a POW camp should be run with our new Ethopian allies in their run-up with the ICJ.

#5 Had a marine who was at abu-griab right after the incidents tell me yesterday that of her whole command of the prison Karpinski was only in Iraq for 10 days and only visited the prison she commanded for 1 morning.

She's a really hands on leader!

#6 So, what Karpinski says, she had no idea that goes on in her command.
