Two British soldiers have admitted abusing Afghan civilians when they appeared at a court martial hearing in Germany.
They were accused of indecent conduct towards children and racial abuse.
Their patrol commander was cleared of failing in his duty to deal with the offences.
The three men have been granted anonymity over fears that naming them would endanger their lives and those of their families.
The soldiers, referred to as soldiers X, Y and Z, appeared in court in Sennelager.
Soldier X admitted pulling an Afghan boy's hand towards his crotch while saying "touch my special place".
He pleaded guilty to conduct to the prejudice of good order and service discipline.
The offence took place while he was on tour in Afghanistan in December 2011. He also admitted insulting another Afghan child between 16 October 2011 and 6 January 2012.
Soldier X was cleared of disgraceful conduct of an indecent kind and forcing an Afghan girl to touch him on a separate occasion.
