On the morning of July 25, as 800 Marines stood in formation at the Camp San Mateo area of Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton, 24 Marines' names were called.

Fifteen were ordered to stand in a line in front of the battalion "to be recognized," according to court filings in the case. The battalion sergeant major stood nearby, carrying a red folder that usually is associated with awards.

But these men weren't awarded. The regiment sergeant major, Sgt. Major Matthew A. Dorsey pointed to the Marines in front and said, "NCIS, arrest these Marines."

About 40 or so Naval Criminal Investigative Service and other military law agents swarmed toward the line of men, coming from behind and the sides. They handcuffed and searched the men before parading them, one-by-one, in front of their peers.

In total, 13 Marines were charged with human smuggling and conspiracy, and eight more were taken away for questioning. Those eight, who were said at the time to be suspects in an unspecified drug activity, were escorted off but not charged.
