What they did then: Commander and First Sergeant, 372nd Military Police Company

What they do now: Captain, U.S. Army Reserve, assigned to the 336th Military Police Battalion; Master Sergeant, U.S. Army Reserve, assigned to the 372nd Military Police Company. Both men have been released from active duty and are serving part-time in the Army Reserve.

Reported involvement: The company is the basic building block of the Army. It includes roughly 100 to 200 personnel and is commanded by a captain who has been an officer for at least five years. The first sergeant is the most senior sergeant in such a unit, and is generally responsible for unit discipline and management. Reese and Lipinski were not implicated directly in any of the abuses; rather, their culpability stemmed from their command responsibility. According to the Taguba report, both men failed to effectively train their military police soldiers on detention do's and don't's; failed to supervise their troops effectively; and failed to respond appropriately to signs of abuse. In May 2004, a lawyer for one of the Abu Ghraib defendants told a military judge that Reese and Lipinski would testify in court that their MP soldiers were ordered by intelligence personnel to abuse the detainees at Abu Ghraib. The testimony was never given because of a plea bargain by Staff Sgt. Ivan L. "Chip" Frederick.

Punishment: Reese was suspended from command on Jan. 17, 2004, right after the Abu Ghraib photos were given to Army criminal investigators. The Taguba report recommended that a general give him and Lipinksi career-ending letters of reprimand. But the Army refuses to comment on whether any administrative punishments have been doled out to the two men, citing privacy considerations.
