U.S. Paid $1B to Contractor Accused of Bigotry at Iraq Air Base

Zack Kopplin, Irvin McCullough — Daily Beast,  The U.S. government has paid Sallyport Global, a military contracting company, over $1 billion since January 2014 to provide security, life support, training and other basic operations at Balad Air Base in Iraq.

But the results, according to 17 current and former Sallyport employees, have been chaotic, bizarre, in many cases sinister, and posed major risks to the personnel on the base at a time when the so-called Islamic State controlled swathes of territory nearby.

RESTON, Va., — Sallyport Global is strongly disputing claims two former employees made about company personnel at Balad Air Force Base in Iraq and released documents shedding light on many of the allegations they made in an Associated Press story that ran May 3, 2017.

"The claims made by two former employees paint an inaccurate picture of Sallyport's operations at Balad," Sallyport COO Matt Stuckart said. "We have helped turn Balad into an instrumental part of the fight against ISIS. Since taking over operations in January 2014 after another company failed to perform, Sallyport has received excellent performance reviews and our employees have demonstrated remarkable valor in an intense war zone. Shortly after taking over operations, our team at Balad risked life and limb evacuating over 1,500 men and women while leaving behind a security force to successfully defend the base against an ISIS advance."
