Sgt. Ethan Haynes served in the United States active duty Army from 2003-2009 where he was trained in Human Intelligence Collection, Interrogation, and Arabic language. He deployed to the joint interrogation and debriefing center in Baghdad, Iraq from FY 07-09. While deployed he interrogated over 200 detainees including some very interesting characters. He also worked with a team to create the first US/Iraqi interrogation school to hand over responsibility to Iraqi forces while maintaining the US strict adherence to international laws and Geneva conventions. Sgt Haynes went on to work as an independent contractor attached to various detachments and intelligence units throughout the Middle East and elsewhere. He has left that career in order to pursue safer work closer to home in order to raise a family. His upcoming book, “Tea and Cookies with Terrorists” Will highlight many of the more memorable interrogations, full of humor, tragedy, and suspense.
