Chris Speer was in mufti, disguised in Afghan clothes to blend in, with full beard. The US attacked the compound with every weapon in the area.

The resultant chaos led him to go inside to check they were all dead. Someone threw a grenade over the wall and hit Speer, probably his own guys, since Khadr would not have any and had been bombed to death, almost. They were going to kill him outright, but an officer said to keep him alive for intelligence purposes.
