The US Army used to reject misfits, criminals, and sociopaths.

But hey, what are you going to do when you gotta meet the quotas and you can't get enough of the quality recruits? Maybe lower the bar?

And then you dump these soldiers into a hell hole where there is no strategy, no goal, not even a reason to be there. Give them lots of weapons, tell them the Arabs are Islamo-fascists (whatever that means), tell them they're Defending Democracy, and turn them loose.

Watch the videos that these soldiers make. They're on the web. They just shoot at whatever moves.

Doesn't the military do a psych profile on recruits before admitting  them?

I'm thinking of how three soldiers could take turns raping a 14 yr. old,
then set her on fire and shoot the rest of the family, including a 5 yr  old.
One soldier testifying said one of them said, "Hey, let's go kill  some 
Iraqi's."
