WARNING: GRAPHIC IMAGES
A rogue American soldier loads up an enemy corpse with deadly explosives, pulls the trigger — and mutilates the war dead. A second image horrifically shows the splatter after C4 exploded his brain.
The shocking pictures on this page were provided exclusively to Breaking Celebrity News by a whistleblowing ex–U.S. Army sergeant, who uncovered evidence of this shameful battlefield desecration near the Afghan-Pakistani border during his 2003 tour of duty.
As Breaking Celebrity News went to press with the findings of our bombshell, two-month investigation, the damning testimony uncovered here was in the hands of appalled lawmakers and Army chiefs, who pledged an urgent investigation.
“We take allegations of this nature very seriously,” Chris Grey, a spokesperson for the U.S. Army Criminal Investigation Command, the criminal investigative arm of the military, told Breaking Celebrity News.
“We are seeking much more information and hard facts as we pursue these allegations.”
Added Matt Pinsker, a U.S. military Judge Advocate General (JAG): “The desecration of enemy corpses is definitely a war crime.”
Some consider the degrading treatment of our enemy’s dead, below, the vilest war crimes since the Abu Ghraib torture and prisoner abuse scandal during America’s second Iraq war.
In a staggering twist, ex-U.S. Army Sgt. Ronald Logan, 48, the brave source of the images, wrote to President Barack Obama in 2013 on “three to four” occasions — but the wicked crimes were covered up, he alleged.
“When I saw the images for the first time, they made me sick to my stomach!” said Logan, who told Breaking Celebrity News he stumbled on the photos after superior officers ordered him to scrub his fellow servicemen’s laptops for inappropriate or incriminating content.
Defying those orders, Logan kept the images, he said.
Then, after the memories haunted him for close to 15 years, he decided to step forward from the shadows and provide them to Breaking Celebrity News.
Unloading a hard drive containing 231 photos, Logan also delivered 24 official U.S. Army documents to support his version of events.
Logan said rumors flew around his unit of U.S. soldiers committing atrocities and desecrating enemy dead. His commanding officers ordered him to scrub unit member laptops for fear of a scandal.
America arrived en force in Afghanistan on Oct. 7, 2001, in the wake of the Sept. 11 atta
