Mohammad Amin, Nabil Said and Shakir Abdul Rahim all captured by January 17, all British.[1]

Who were the first 20 captives?

[edit]

I think I read the first 20 was only approximately 20.

WRT when the captives arrived -- if you go to Guantanamo captives list of release dates#captives who have left, sorted by ISN, and click on "first weigh-in", you will get an idea.

Carol Rosenberg, writing in the Miami Herald (who has done excellent work BTW), reported on the first 20 captives about a year ago. Before I started to use web-citation to take a snapshot of her articles. IIRC, she names seven of the first captives, based on her research. Geo Swan (talk) 05:07, 6 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
