Activists in Bangladesh told ABC News that they found orders and design specifications for jerseys and vests with American flagsS.
Marine Corps badges and signs are burning in the remains of the Tazreen Fashion factory, where more than 112 workers were killed in the fire last week.
Workers\' rights organizations in the United StatesS.
Angry that an overseas factory with clear safety issues will be selected to make clothing for the licensed side of the US Marine Corps.
\"The fact that the Marine Corps\'s logo clothing was found in the ruins of the sweatshop fire should be a wake-up call --
Call the United States. S.
\"The government will implement safeguards to ensure decent working conditions between the government\'s supply chain and the licensee,\" said Liana Foxvog of the International Labor Rights Forum . \".

Read the original ABC News report on the deadly factory in Bangladesh on March 2012.

Walmart, Disney, Sears, etc.
The famous American clothing brand found their clothing on the floor of the Tazreen factory immediately after the fire. S.
Marines and North Carolina
According to the headquarters company that produced the items under the license agreement with the Marine Corps, they did not know and did not approve any arrangements to produce the garments there.
\"We have never deliberately produced clothing there.
\"Never,\" said Bob Humphries, Chairman and CEO of Delta Apparel, the parent company of the soff brand.
Mr. Humphries said his company was \"making a radical change to the status quo\" to find out why the order form found in tazrennes identified Mr. Soff as the company that made a request to Marine Corps products.
He said that on 2011, his company placed an order with Tuba Limited, Tazreen\'s parent company.
At that time, 11,000 pieces of clothing were received from tazrennes, and officials complained to tuba.
\"We told them that the factory could not produce other garments, which was unauthorized,\" said Humphries . \".
The Marines are also confused, especially since its license agreement with sofv specifically stipulates that its products should be labeled with any Marine Corps logo at the sofv plant in North Carolina, and there is no approval to make anything in Tazreen.
\"The Tazreen Fashion factory is not an authorized manufacturer of Marine Corps branded goods licensed by Jordan isov,\" said Jessica ohaver, director of the Marine Corps trademark licensing office.
Advocates of the Bangladesh Workers\' Solidarity Center found the order book in the burned-out tazrennes building and took photos.
The photos include the order form dated July 2012, printed with \"Semper Fi\" or \"U. S.
Marines, \"matching sweat pants, and the top of the tank that says\" few. The Proud.
Humphries reviewed the photos at the request of ABC News and said that the orders and specifications appeared to be \"based\" on his company\'s documents.
He speculated that, without telling the company, Tuba, who received an order from soff, had transferred production to Tazreen.
None of the items made in Bangladesh are part of the company\'s contract with the Defense Department-the law requires them to be made in the United States, Mr. Humphries said.
Soff has also entered into licensing agreements with several branches of the military to enable T-
Shirts, jerseys and other items with military signs are sold at commercial and military bases around the world.
Most of these products are made in the United States, Mr. Humphries said. S.
Or in Latin America.
Soff products produced elsewhere in the world account for only a small portion of its business.
\"Our contract with tuba will be less than £ 1% for 2 out of 10,\" he said . \".
\"We work very hard to ensure the safety of the factory,\" said Humphries . \".
\"It\'s a tragic event that needs to stop whenever someone loses their lives.
\"The workers group is frustrated that SoV and other companies basically refuse to take responsibility for the production of clothing at the tazrennes factory, even in the event of a photo fire showing order books, item sketches, labels, the actual clothing they produce is in the factory.
Several companies including Wal-Mart
Mart and Disney said that a company that acts as a middleman placed orders at the factory, and neither company was authorized to work in Tazreen.
\"We express our deepest sympathy to the families who lost their loved ones in this terrible tragedy,\" a Disney spokesperson said . \".
\"Our records show that none of our license holders are allowed to produce Disney-
At least for the past 12 months, the brand products of the factory.
We have been working with the government, NGOs and other companies to address issues related to manufacturing in Bangladesh and we are committed to continuing these efforts.
\"The clothing label ENYCE owned by hip hop tycoon Sean Combs admits that a company hired to produce its products has placed orders with Tazreen.
Tazreen has always been an important audit target for Wal-Mart.
On 2010, Wal-Mart inspectors admitted 9-after the fire-
There are no fire exits in buildings where 1,500 workers work.
\"From the world\'s largest retailer to the world\'s richest rapper, a series of entities benefiting from low wages and deadly conditions have made the factory so cheap, for the world\'s largest army-none of them raised a finger to protect the workers, \"said Scott Nova of the Workers\' Rights Federation.
