My mistake - I thought that the delay was only nine months - but as it turned out, it WAS LONGER. The Red Cross began filing complaints in MARCH 2003 - AND REPEATEDLY COMPLAINED since then.
"The Red Cross has emphasized that the report was only a summary of its repeated attempts in person and in writing from March to November 2003 to get U.S. officials to stop abuses. Those earlier interventions by the Red Cross far preceded the Pentagon's decision to investigate after a low-ranking U.S. soldier stepped forward in January.
