US troops accused of
raping fellow soldiers
Female US soldiers serving in Iraq and Afghanistan have more to fear than roadside bombs or enemy ambushes.
They are also at risk of being raped or sexually assaulted by fellow soldiers.
The Lonely Soldier:
The Private War Of Women Serving In Iraq,
a book based on 40 interviews, recounts the stories of women who served in combat zones,
and tells of rape, sexual assault
and harassment by male counterparts.
Some were warned by officers not to go to the latrine by themselves.
One began carrying a knife in case she was attacked by comrades.
Others said they felt discouraged to report assaults.

I find it hard to sympathize with somebody who volunteers to kill for the Empire and then suffers rape. But if the rape victim decides to kill her rapist fellow-soldier or, better, officer, more power to her!
