| Former sailor details misconduct by SEALs pulled from Iraq |
| 2020-08-22 |
Long, lurid, Ay Pee is bathing in it, and I’m concerned because the rest of the world is not cynical about such reports. Herewith a taste: [Rudaw] US Navy intelligence specialist Colleen Grace was asleep on a remote air base in Iraq in 2019 when she was woken up by knocking on the door next to her room, and then a voice she recognized.The voice belonged to a Navy corpsman she knew. He was upset and speaking loudly to the Army colonel who lived next door. Grace heard the corpsman say that a sailor who attended a Fourth of July barbecue had just been raped by a member of the Navy SEAL platoon on the base. The corpsman asked the colonel what to do because the victim was afraid that if she reported the incident, retribution would follow. "And that’s real," Grace heard Hospitalman First Class Gustavo Llerenes tell Col. Thomas Collins, a physician’s assistant with the Florida National Guard. "It’s a good ol’ boy’s network." |

| #2 Jacked up on 'field rations', coming down from mission adrenaline. Dudes need to be put in a cage and fed 'ludes. The chemical conspiracy. Coverup is as criminal as the act. |

| #1 Real hot shots don't think the rules apply...because they've been given breaks before. That said, I have a (late) relation who was on track to be screwed over by Army JAG to protect higher, until exculpatory evidence was extracted from the prosecution. And the Haditha Marines were screwed over on account of a bogus article in Time magazine. Higher will throw Joe under the bus to stay on good terms with the NYT editorial page. So, while my first reaction to the story was anger, my continuing feeling is caution. |
