In Vietnam the other service men killed them during firefights.
People do become murderers in war, It is not as Hollywood as one might think. And yes you can tell when it happens. Guys start shooting people walking down the street, or farmers out in a field. Always having an excuse. (I thought he had a rocket launcher) (No it was a garden rake) (Well it looked like a launcher to me)
The problem builds and you either have to kill the guy or he will end up killing you over a card game or simple argument.

US soldiers accused of murdering Iraqi detainees or citizens should be tried by an American military court first. If found guilty, they should be sent to the Iraqi courts. This is also what should happen to any US soldier who is overseas and commits a crime against the host country.

The cultural limitations do no longer supply for a manner for the in u . s . a . troop on the floor to depressurize and relax, lots comparable to in Vietnam interior the late 60's. My daughter married a army individual, he has accomplished his excursion, area of which blanketed the midsection east. it is grotesque over there. so which you may take the area which you desire no US militia individual comes close to them for any reason, provides me ask your self. Do you end you toddlers from analyzing because of the fact there are undesirable books? How approximately no television or video clips. As a retired civil servant from DoD, i will enable you comprehend from very own adventure that maximum American uniformed every person is wonderful upstanding electorate, and on a proportion foundation you will discover fewer "undesirable apples " interior the ranks of the militia than interior the yank society as an entire.

I've read some of your questions and answers. The fact that you even ask this question drips with anti American political vitriol. I'm sure you would like to have them shot by insurgents just to teach them for being American. You make me sick dude. enjoy your free speech. You obviously have no concept or gratitude for the price at which it was bought.

No, because in a conflict, the soldiers remain our responsibility under UCMJ. That's how we've always dealt with these types of cases.

no, it is considered a war crime, so it is usually the military itself or the UN's job.
