[Photo courtesy of Bjork family.]Following a link within the statistics program here at The US Report, I was surprised to find information indirectly related to the case of Capt. Carl Bjork. I found the de facto backgrounder in a post written in 2007 by Michael Yon who was embedded in Hit. Yon is a writer who also served as a Green Beret and has extensive experience reporting from war zones.
Ironically I found Yon’s relevant article by chance, but his very detailed account of events in Hit in Anbar Province details one of Bjork’s accusers before the captain faced any charges. There were a few surprises.
