Guys, why don't we all wait until some more info about the details of this case gets published? We do know almost nothing about the who and the why.

All we know is that he was stationed in Joint Base Lewis McCord that is beign mentioned by insiders as being one with a very bad record in the quality list of US forst and camps, and that they have had several problematic personalities there, and we know of eye-witness reports in Afghanistan claiming that drunken GIs leave their base occassionally to conduct almost man-hunts as their way to kill time. What is claim and what is truth we do not know.

And if the man-hunt-hobby claims are true, we do not know if this is the explanation for this case now, or whether it is somethign different.

One thing should not surprise an yone, though. "Krieg vertiert". Such thiungs happen, and will nhappen again. If oyu open the gates to hell and expose men to the wrath of all gods of war, you need to understand that this will chnage them. All of them. Soem can deal with it to a certain degree and copensate, others cannot. Some collapse, some just reveal in good or bad what always was hidden inside of them, some get overthrown by the demons of war, and turn into demons themselves.

That's war. It does ennoble nobody, never.
