..."Five Green Berets from 3rd Special Forces Group were convicted of stealing counterinsurgency cash funds that were earmarked for humanitarian projects for Afghan police, such as roads, schools and medical clinics.
The thefts occurred while deployed in Afghanistan from 2009 to 2010, but they did not become public knowledge until mid-2019. The final defendant pled guilty in January 2020.
Three of the five soldiers convicted in the conspiracy still received honorable retirements from the Army."
