Vanessa Guillen a fine trooper ,was sexually assaulted raped and then murdered. Vanessa reported her rapes yet her chain of command failed her. This act will take any sexual assault and other acts of violence out of the chain of command good ole boy club and hand it off to jag.

Now we have members of congress and our military bitching that by doing it this way will break down unit cohesion I call bullshit on this argument as I can speak from experience. And I will be writing a letter thank goodness for spell and grammar punctuation check on our laptops , a letter to my seditionist congress repig in arguing this response by the way my congress repig is a former soldier.

So late 1985 I catch a PCs to mech leg land west Germany over medical issues broken ankle twice on drops so I PCs from 2/325 pir 82nd yup STD’s from the sky the All American. To a mech unit west Germany, one morning we’re getting ready for the day after pt and I notice a young troop in my squad of five we were undermanned, so you remember the yellow pt suits the banana suits, well he has blood on his shorts , me not knowing it was blood at maybe 05:30 standing in our common area in barracks.

I take him aside and ask him what’s up man you sick you crap yourself, I’m thinking troop is sick and he starts with the tears and asked can we talk someplace in private, let me explain I was a corporal acting as squad leader because we were so under strength. So were talking it took awhile in my room. Here this troop was bleeding from his rectum he told me straight out his words crying were corporal they fucked me , I’m not tracking him at moment what he is telling me sobbing, and he tells me he was drinking with two dudes from 2nd platoon in their room it was a Sunday and they raped him were now Monday morning duty.

Please don’t say anything corporal as he was sobbing I’m hugging my man trying to comfort him. Yet problem is he’s bleeding heavy and I said we gotta go tmc troop medical clinic, and we were fortunate in my 3rd platoon as we had fine NCO’s that cared for us. In telling a 3rd platoon staff sgt and platoon sgt , I need your car keys I filled them in took young troop to clinic where he needed to be stitched up. And spent maybe two days in hospital, now unfortunately word travels fast in rifle company.

I knew immediately word was out as I got back to barracks and I’m asked by dudes in my platoon is it true he was fucked asking me out of concern. And dealing with our lieutenant and xo and company commander. Yet among the enlisted ranks people wanted blood from the two rapist for what they done to 18 year old trooper. Now the pig rapist we’re immediately removed from company no clue where they were transferred and one of pig rapist was E 5.

Yet no ucmj was ever taken against them and the young soldier after discharge was transferred to administration clerk position down at division HQ, it was for the best as even though we felt empathy some of us yes we had assholes who cruelly joked over his misfortune. I’d shut them down those morons, so no prosecution of rapist does not effect morale or cohesion of unit no justice or paybacks do effect unit morale and cohesion. Yes I’m hopeful that this will pass and yes I rant but I remember that young E-2 crying in my room that morning and it still pisses me off.
