Director of Citizen Soldier, a GI and veteran rights advocacy
organization, Ensign is at Ft. Stewart and has closely followed Mejia's case. Ensign
said: "When Sgt. Mejia surrendered at Ft. Stewart on March 16, 2004, he
submitted a formal application for discharge as a conscientious
objector to Major General William G. Webster Jr., Commanding General of the base.
On pages 29-32 of this application, Mejia provides details of the torture
and abuse of detainees which he witnessed at Al-Assad [detention facility]
in early May 2003."
