These stories remind me so much of the foreign media covering American soldiers serving abroad.
A whopping majority of US GI’s abroad are good dudes and don’t cause problems. But there are obviously some bad apples in the military.
US GI’s may commit 3 or 4 rapes a year as opposed to thousands by locals but it’s the military crime that gets reported thus feeding an anti-military agenda whether it be Spain, Japan, Korea, wherever.
And, of course, when these soldiers come home, the hero worshipping by the Trumpers begins. Cue the Lee Greenwood.
Perspective is everything.
