Powell describes Spyder in court filings as a former “Military Intelligence expert,” and his testimony is offered to support one of her central claims. “He’s not an intelligence analyst.”In an interview, Merritt maintained that he graduated from the intelligence training program. His separation papers, which he provided to The Post, make no mention of intelligence training. Merritt acknowledged that the declaration’s description of his work as an “electronic intelligence analyst under 305th Military Intelligence” is misleading. The 305th Military Intelligence Battalion at Fort Huachuca has taken on a special significance among supporters of Powell’s lawsuits.
