United American Patriots


United American Patriots is an American nonprofit organization which advocates and funds legal defense for American service members they believe to have been unjustly convicted and wrongfully imprisoned on war crimes charges. Herbert Donahue, a retired Marine Corps major who served in Vietnam, founded the group in 2005. Retired Marine Lt. Col. David "Bull" Gurfein serves as CEO. They have advocated on behalf of such American soldiers as Robert Bales, Corey Clagett, Derrick Miller, Clint Lorance, and Eddie Gallagher.
