Immediately upon arrival, soldiers cut off all of Mr. Lindh's clothing. This was common practice for wounded personnel (friend and foe) on arrival to a shock trauma platoon in order to fully evaluate medical needs. Completely naked, wearing nothing but his blindfold and shaking violently from the cold nighttime air, Mr.Lindh was then bound to a stretcher with heavy duct tape wrapped tightly around his chest , upper arms, ankles and the stretcher itself, a wool blanket was supplied by medical personnel after being secured to the stretcher. Photos were taken, as is common to confirm identifying marks or wounds. Next, he was placed in a windowless metal shipping container, for safety of himself and military members (it was not uncommon for foreign forces to have explosives or other devices in unforeseen places), about 15 feet long, 7 feet wide and 8 feet high, but not before military personnel photographed Mr. Lindh as he lay on the stretcher."
