My "friend" had the second worse job in the Military...He was MP and the first line of interrogation to determine whether the prisoners were farmers, shepherds, merchants or terrorists'...he worked with interpreters during the first process interviews...one of the reasons they liked him in that position, he could pick up foreign languages extremely quickly and his day job was a probation officer with a really good BS detector...Once he learned language, he would play dumb the first half of the interview and then do second half of the interview he would conduct in their language...
He felt his JOB or DUTY was not to put terrorists back on the street...he saved lives by making sure prisoners were friend or foe...kind of important gig...
thanks
