This is really intriguing and you should pop over to Bob McCarty Writes and read the whole article. Not only is it a concern for our troops and could put them at greater risk, I have to wonder why it is taking the military so long to answer Bob’s questions. Here’s an excerpt:
A controversy with life-and-death implications has been brewing for 12 months over the Army’s decision to deploy the Preliminary Credibility Assessment Screening System, a hand-held lie detector, to combat zones.
One critic of the decision believes a high-tech “turf war” resulted in Army leaders opting to deploy the PCASS devices. As a result of that internal dispute, he believes the lives of combat troops have been placed at greater-than-necessary risk.
Based upon my experience in dealing with Army officials during the past two days, I’m inclined to believe he’s right.
