I had to read the book "Black Hearts" for a college course and it was really an eye opener. I was in Iraq at the time of the rape and murder and never really put much thought into it other than what they did was really fucked up but I'm glad a soldier had the balls to report it. This article provides a great background to it and really shows the lengths to which some will go to protect their own careers, thus abandoning our own. If anyone has not read that book, I really recommend it. If my MIL ever gets it back I'll even mail it to anyone for free. I didn't know f this is the right place but since it dealt with senior command, hopefully some more senior on this board would have some insight on how to better improve this and make sure it doesnt happen again.
