Attorney Mark Zaid is representing two U.S. Army veterans in a dispute against the U.S. Department of Defense over the delayed publishing of a memoir about an Egyptian immigrant who came to the United States, joined the military and returned to the Middle East as part of the service’s “most secret” military unit.
“The Activity: My Life Inside America’s Most Secret Military Unit,” about the life of Ameen al-Gammal, is an autobiography set to publish in October on St. Martin’s Press, but according to a complaint filed late Tuesday in U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia the agency “unlawfully imposed a prior restraint upon [plaintiff] by delaying, obstructing and infringing on her constitutional right to publish an unclassified manuscript.”
