Korey Rowe is a producer of Loose Change 9/11: An American Coup, a film by Dylan Avery. Rowe was born in Oneonta, New York and currently lives in Long Beach, CA. He is a former US soldier who served six months in Kandahar, Afghanistan and one year in Kuwait and Iraq. Rowe enlisted in the 101st Airborne Division in August 2001 and left in June 2005, then joining the production of Loose Change. On July 23, 2007, he was arrested at his home in Oneonta, New York, based on a military warrant charging him with felony desertion.[1] Two days later he was returned to his unit at Fort Campbell, Kentucky,[2] although he states that he received an honorable discharge and returned to uniform of his own accord, and that he is attempting to expunge his name completely from the system.[3] Rowe would later post scans of his certificate of honorable discharge from the U.S. Army on his blog.[4]

Rowe was at the end of his active-duty enlistment in the summer of 2005 when he was told his unit would be re-deployed to Iraq. Rowe's unit, the 187th Infantry Regiment, was due to return to Iraq in August 2007, but was eventually granted release.

On Friday, January 28, 2011 Rowe was arrested with a 19-year-old Brooklyn man for allegedly selling heroin to an undercover police officer. Rowe was released on bail.[5]
