An American contractor, Larry J. Green, pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to defraud the United States and commit theft of property of value to the United States worth over $300,000, one count of theft of property of value to the United States and one count of aiding and abetting the submission of false documents.

In a press release, the Department of Justice says Green admitted that he along with others conspired to steal and did steal the U.S. property from the installation in Kandahar between April 2015 and July 2015.

The thefts included a truck and three generators, according to press release.

Green also admitted he helped a co-conspirator who had security access to create false official documents to allow unknown and not thoroughly-examined Afghan nationals onto the base.

Green is scheduled to be sentenced on November 19.
