This is a call to action, melt the Pentagon phone lines and tell them in no uncertain terms that America will not send her sons and daughters to serve in an immoral military. Call the Commanding General of the USAHRC and demand this decision is reversed. Challenge the new Secretary of the Army to explain to us if he agrees with sexual abuse of young boys in the presence of our Soldiers. Email and call your congressional representatives, Republican, Democrat, Independent, and tell them to unite against this injustice against US Army Green Beret SFC Charles Martland.
I don’t know what disgusts me more, the actions of the Afghans, which are to be expected…or that of our U.S. Army, which should not be expected.

I fear that once they have control it will be filled with “new Americans” and used as a tool of domestic repression, just like the places the “new Americans” hail from.
Oh, I can assure you that had I to do it over again, I would not.
I also counsel young men to stay away from it, until and unless the corrupt current administration is long gone.
This crap will not change any time soon.
an ambitious lawyer should see if he can find victims of the military’s policy of ignoring sex crimes on bases in Afghanistan and file suit because I believe that American law has jurisdiction on the base it self.
It’s not the secretary of the Army a faggot himself?
How disgusting we've become. Put a panty on someone's head...OUTRAGE! But allow buggering of little kids....oh, it's just their culture and who are we to judge?
This country is sick to the core.
Why do so many “conservatives” simply give up when the going gets tough?
the only reason there was outrage over the panties by the media is that there was pictures and George bush was president at the time. the nation is not sick just those in positions of power and influence. it is a sick situation we have when embarrassment of prisoners of war is considered a major crime and the rape of a child is considered a unfortunate event by the generals in control of the military. we no evil by what it does.
what a great point
I simply am not going to lay down my life for a government that supports abortion and gay marriage, and harasses Both Christians and political groups it does not like.
We need the true patriots to stay in and still volunteer . My son has served three tours in Afghanistan and has done his best to insure that these acts don’t happen in his command.
Expendable like Roman citizens: government sacrifices you for an extra summer house and extra booze while the poor are left to rot, and yet the citizens follow.
There was I time when I served in the Army and I thought that the military provided many valuable options for the teen / 20 year old. I even encouraged my children to consider careers in the military. However, in the past six years I have grown to understand why my friends who were still in, were retiring and NOT encouraging their children to enter military service. This trend was true even if they had a long family history of service, such as my forefathers.
I can no longer recommend the service as either a career or as even a short enlistment to gain college funds. I am encouraging my children to seek alternate paths.
It is my understanding that he is a homosexual, so his answer to that question will be "YES!"
Of course he won't publicly say so.
Curing the garbage that is Afghan culture would take a WWII level commitment, requiring full scale occupation and a lot of (justified) killing. It isn’t going to happen.
That said, no Afghan “man” found by U.S. troops to be raping kids, should escape punishment.
And even more importantly, we need to stop the traitor class from pouring immigrants into our homeland from garbage pits like Afghanistan.
Cheney lost my respect under Poppy as Sec of Def. But I knew our military had been had under "W" when he appointed Rummy as Sec of Def. One can not discuss The Hollow Carter Military and all the damage done without remembering it was also in a shambles under Ford/Rummy tenure. The GOP-E secretaries are there just to make sure the right corporate donors get contracts.
Ronald Reagan was the last POTUS who truly cared for the troops and the help did get there real fast under his tenure. GHW Bush and Sec of Def Cheney started us on the military decline. A two house GOP majority for six of eight of Clinton's years helped more. Under GW Bush even with a two house GOP Majority the help never came. Just more laws and agencies against us. Obama is merely finishing the job of destroying the military both the DEMs and GOP-E have been trying to do since 1989.
I knew something was wrong with sharing Dining Facility base with Afghans when I saw kids with jingles on their ankles there and a dude making strange gestural solicitations. You heard that right, they were trying to get soldiers caught with children. There is much more to this story.
Agree and bump!
There’s no way in hell I’d ever enlist in the services the way things are now. But for reasons further than just the insanity cited here. I no longer see this as a country I’d be willing to put my life on the line for. Once this country went all out homo-degenerate with fag-marriage, America became a nation whose preservation just doesn’t matter to me the way it once did.
My Dad was in OCS in WWII. One night, the old sergeant came into the barracks drunk and abusive. He ordered everyone to get up & scrub the floor with their toothbrushes. As the only corporal in the barracks, my Dad said, “It is my duty to place you under arrest.”. The sergeant screamed profanities and threats at him as the other men got the MPs and led him away.
The next day, a colonel pulled him aside. “Are you the one who placed that sergeant under arrest?” My Dad thought he was done for.
“If you had done anything else, you would never have been an officer in the US Army!”
In hindsight, I think it may have been an elaborate test. But, my Dad thought it was real ‘til the day he died. I know this. It was braver than anything he did in combat.
I just am reminded of this because I doubt that kind of questioning of authority would be tolerated today.
