This man would not be acceptable in the Military of most nations. Not with HIS record? They are not that hard up. I was on a night exercise in Germany as a Platoon leader and came up on a group of German guys in the woods, who were having a good time with a quite happy German female. There were some of my men who would have accepted the gracious invitation to join in. They were far from home and muchly in need no doubt. I ordered then to leave at once. I did not feel at risk. You instinctively know in the service what the values are. Graner knew e was OK to do what he did. It was almost a national 'given' to be ruthless as a nation at the time. Get over it.

Google 'patrick lockyer' to see my article on American Chronicle. Oh the good ole days.
