Scholars who studied documents the United States Department of Defense published about Guantanamo captives have asserted that 35 percent of the captives had their continued detention justified due to attendance at training facilities allegedly attended by Guantanamo captives.[1] A team lead by Colonel Joseph Felter, at the Combatting Terrorism Center at the United States Military Academy at West Point reported the Taliban hosted on the order of one hundred non-state training camps. They reported that 181 of the captives whose allegations were listed on the summary of evidence memos prepared for the first 516 Combatant Status Review Tribunals alleged the captive had an association with a suspicious training facility.

Training facilities listed in the OARDEC memos

[edit]

Eventually the Department of Defense published 572 memos from the CSR Tribunals, and an additional 1023 memos were published from the Office for the Administrative Review of Detained Enemy Combatants' 2005, 2006, and 2007 Administrative Review Board hearings. ARB hearings were held in 2008, but they have not been made public.
