Those involved should be punished. There's no place for this unprofessional conduct in the military.
Careful - the MSM will get a hold of this and call it "Abu GrabMe"
You're joking, right? Is it the sex or the alcohol that is unprofessional?
They gotta decompress somehow. Nobody was hurt and I don't see any innocent Iraqis with panties on their heads so what is really the big deal here?
Hate to break it to you but soldiers have been getting ahold of illegal alcohol and having sex for hundreds of years.
I disagree. The ones who leaked these photos and this story are the ones who should be punished.
Unless this event occurred on duty, who gives a hoot? Those folks, more than any others in America, deserve to blow off steam.
Oh Bull Sheit. You put men and women together and act surprised when they gravitate toward some sort of sex. What the hell do you expect?
There are no beer joints and Strip bars in Iraq, no where for men to go for female entertainment and you have these pent up emotions boiling to get out., I am surpriused there isnt more of it than there is. These are young men and women not volunteers for the Seminary.
If you dont want women and men mixing dont mix them. Keep women out of the military.
Agreed, while on duty. But off duty, letting off steam is a military tradition, and these kids have earned it more than most. A tempest in a teapot (or in a mudpuddle?).
Sounds more like a Ted Kennedy or Bill Clinton policy meting with their interns....
Those involved should be punished. There's no place for this unprofessional conduct in the military.
BULLCHIT !
So those fighting for our freedom should have none of their own ?
Mudwrestling is not a sex party you can go to any corner in any big city here in the US and see much much worse they were having a bit of fun all grown ups and consenting adults no prisoners involved.
These brave men and woman are human beings just like us
I think the ones who need to be punished are the newsmakers who need to leave our troops alone and quit trying to make them out to be some kind of monsters.
Right on. Will we export debauchery with democracy? Would you see such behavior in a Al-Quita military camp?
You would not.
Never pulled into the PI after a few months at sea, have you?
