So far as I know, all the weapons are stored and destroyed eventually (what are we going to do with thousands of AK-47s?).

I'm not all at all sure about tomorrow's roster. In the Stone and Chessani hearings, they started with Marines who were in Haditha that day and could provide a kind of overview based on what they witnessed. Could be almost anybody (maybe Kallop for the third time?)

Further to the point above about NCIS, the kind of thing that bothers me is this bit about in the news about LCpl. Andrew Wright and LCpl. Ryan Briones. According to Wright's parents, Andrew "was under so much pressure because of the investigation that he had consulted with an attorney, they said."

Wright only arrived on the scene long after the action had taken place. Why would NCIS hammer at him? (Of course, Briones is in prison now so I doubt he'll be on the prosecution witness list.)

Also from your link, dated May 30, 2006, On Monday, both Marines were back at Camp Pendleton, near Oceanside, where base officials said several members of Kilo Company, 3rd Battalion, 1st Marine Regiment, 1st Marine Division were being confined during the investigations. Do you think they were confused the Kilo company Marines with those from Hamdania at the time? I had never heard that any of Kilo Company were confined during investigations.

Also, I don't understand why so many people allegedly took pictures. Max Frank testified that he took pictures, Laughner testified that he had pictures on his personal computer that Grayson allegedly ordered him to get rid of. Briones and Andrew White claimed they were ordered to take pictures at the scene. What's up with all of this? With 60 NCIS agents scanning the globe for any pictures, I wonder what they may have pressured Marines into claiming regarding any photos.
