I don’t believe it for a minute. We had Koreans, Filipinos, ex-Cubans, Chinese, Puerto Ricans, and practically everything else when I was in the Navy and I can tell you that any “bullying” they are reporting is nothing but good natured teasing. If anyone got out of line, the rest of us would put him in his place. There is more to this story that they aren’t telling or more likely deliberately leaving out.
Inclined to agree with your assessment.
Agreed. Any one who has made it through basic and is in a deployed unit understands the brotherhodd between the soldiers, regardless of race/creed/color. Sure, there are those who never get it, but they are spotted quickly and hopefully weeded out. My son's guard unit had a Muslim soldier who was okay with the USA, but for some reason had a burr up his *ss about India and was outspoken about wanting to kill Indians. Needless to say, he was discharged.
I can believe it. Things have changed a lot in the past ten years in this society. Amorality has come of age...not for all but a lot of yutes.
