From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Detainee Affairs (DASD-DA) is a political appointment created by United States President George W. Bush. The appointee has responsibility for captives apprehended during the "war on terror".

The Administrative Review Board recommendations as to whether Guantanamo captives should remain in United States custody routinely cited intelligence assessments issued under the authority of the DASD-DA.[1]
