Wasn't the commnander of that Abu Grab scene a female reservist? Yeesh. and she was never held accountable for not maintaining discipline in that unit.

Master Sgt. Brian Lipinski . . . said under cross-examination that Graner wore his hair too long, altered his uniform in violation of regulations and refused to stay away from Pfc. Lynndie England despite being repeatedly told to do so."

I guess this is a lesson to every leader -- large violations are preceded by smaller ones.

Everything I've seen about Graner indicates he was a punk, a bad apple that can bring down a unit. I have no sympathy for him.

That being said, they have really overblown this whole thing.

The Miltary was dealing with this before the press got hold of it. Let them continue
