But the issue did not end there. Perry said the Clinton administration's Oversight Intelligence Board also discovered references to torture in a more recent review of School of the Americas instruction manuals. The administration reported this fact to Congress and also made it public, while taking immediate parallel action to safeguard against continued use of these materials, the secretary said. New measures taken by the Defense Department, according to Perry, include a broadening of human rights training in the military and the addition of a Board of Visitors to review the course content and teaching methods for the School of the Americas. More recently, Perry said he has ordered his department's instructor general to carry out still another review, specifically designed to validate all training procedures. The main goal of all of these measures, Perry said, "is to make absolutely certain that nothing like this can ever happen again." NNNN
