The rules for interpreters in Afghanistan and Iraq are very tough, and not consistent between countries. All of our interpreters were desperate to work for the Americans, because they get an automatic green-card after a certain time of service. They knew that they wouldn't get the same treatment from the UK.
Some of them were pretty dodgy. We had one who had been sacked by the yanks for stabbing a prisoner to death. Lovely bloke though.
