Father of soldier killed in Niger asks the Army not to punish the Green Beret officer who led the mission
By: Kyle Rempfer  

The father of Staff Sgt. Bryan Black, an Army Green Beret killed in the October 2017 Niger ambush, has authored a letter asking the Army not to punish the Special Forces captain who led the mission.

Hank Black, a retired Marine Corps major, asked that his son’s commanding officer, Capt. Mike Perozeni, be spared a General Officer Memorandum of Reprimand, or GOMOR, for his conduct prior to the mission.

"I urge you to not file the GOMOR, which, in all likelihood, would end Captain Perozeni’s Army career,” Black wrote in a letter to Maj. Gen. Edwin Deedrick Jr., the commanding officer of First Special Forces Command, who administered the letters of reprimand.
