Oh, and they were finally mustered out for stealing from fellow soldiers...

"They were stealing from other soldiers," Wilson said. "It was discovered that there had been petty crimes that were not related to the original allegations of food poisoning or disloyalty. The individuals were simply not trustworthy."

Thanks. I finally got a grasp on it :)

This is a fairly new Army MOS calle 09L or zero nine Lima - Translator/Interpreter. It appears they take native Arabic/Persian speakers and let them join the US Army.

They are shipped off to Ft Jackson where they undergo intense English language training in preparation for US Army Basic Training. Once they meet the minimum skill level for English, they take Basic Training and then continue on to their advanced schooling which actually trains them to be proficient in their MOS - 09L.

So these bozos never actually made it out to the field as they were discharged either during their language course, during which everyone is assigned a laptop, or Basic Training.
