Oh, you didn't don't worry.
I'll tell you one little anecdote. There was a very attractive female soldier who was embroiled in a little controversy like this on a post I was stationed at in Germany. Seems there was a video tape circulating of her having sex with a couple of my fellow infantrymen (from my unit). The rumor mill just ran wild with this. The story evolved until it had her having sex with the whole company or with various squads or that she used to be a porn star before joining the Army. The existence of this video tape was sworn to by many- many claimed to have even seen it but could never cough the actual video up when asked. It was always "oh, Joe Schmo over in Bravo has it right now".
Now, the thing is, she did have sex with the original two infantrymen at the same time. The two looked on it as sharing a good thing between battle buddies. I asked 'em about this and this is honestly how they thought about it. They would neither confirm nor deny that the tape existed.
After the young woman ended her "relationship" with the one infantryman she was with (one of the pair of battle buddies) she started dating a guy in my platoon. After a while I got to know her enough to just come out and ask her if the tape existed or not and she denied it did. So who knows? Half the battalion claimed to have seen it. That she had done the actual deed was never in question- just the video tape part was- but it would not have been something I would have put past the two guys and they did have a video camera in their room.
Now, the battalion command did some inquiries into the matter but apparently nothing was ever found out one way or the other. The young woman was quite brazen. She undressed right in front of us one day (changing from uniform to civvies). She was very attractive physically. I have to say in the end that she would have been of the temperment to have participated in such a video if it indeed had ever been made. She walked around with people calling her a whore right to her face and it didn't even seem to bother her.
You see some wild sh!t in the Army. This incident was fairly tame compared to other things I have seen.
Yet she was considered the sole whore in the incident. Sad, really sad.
I am willing to grant the pics of Jessica Lynch exist, but I still find it hard to believe, and think they may very well be much like the purported "video tape" you mention. No way that would not have ever made the rounds. Heck, if it was no secret the gal you know of had sex with two guys, then the video should have been around somewhere and shown up on base. And, I honestly think pics of Pvt. Lynch in all her glory would have shown up long before now.
We are probably going to just have to wait and see what, if anything, shows up.
