I completely agree. Without discipline and supervision, a soldier may not keep his gun clean. But degrading people as was done here: that is something no-one should need to tell you is wrong.

But is that true? In this part of the mid-west, bullying starts at school and is alive and almost a form of entertainment in the local bars on Saturday nights. There are plenty of wives and girlfriends around here who could confirm it only takes a couple of Bud Lights for a lot of men to lose their veneer of self-control.

Now imagine them in a position of having victims who can't fight back at all...

No excuses tho. I hope they are punished much more severely than at present seems likely. And their superiors with them...
