USATODAY.com - Military frees 3 teens from Guantanamo Bay

In November, officials at the base said the three were kept apart from the other prisoners, including older boys aged 16 and 17. They were given some freedom of movement within their section of the prison, and guards said they liked to kick soccer balls.
No video or stills, but a report of playing soccer. The report (of January 29, 2004) also contains the following statements:

During their captivity at Guantanamo, the boys wore orange jumpsuits and frequently met with psychiatrists. They were taught math, reading and writing in their native language, and picked up some English, guards said.

The teenagers had a refrigerator stocked with apples, oranges, pears and dates. When they cooperated, they got snacks and extra movie time. When they didn't, they were confined to their rooms.

They exchanged censored mail with relatives through the International Committee of the Red Cross, the only independent group allowed access to the detainees.

THANKS, EXCELLENT!

ALL--Let's make this a resource thread that we can rub treasonous enemy-within senator and MSM noses in.


If a few FReepers will also archive copies of these items, in case they should 'vanish' from the original MSM sites that would be good.
