>> Every one of those MPs was a sadist. No one but a sadist would have done that kind of duty. I know the army knew it was going on ....

Judging by Faultline's reply to you and everyone else's silence, I would guess that people don't believe your post.

Sam, the lack of replies doesn't mean this reader didn't believe. Just that I thought he was describing something known to everyone who has been in the US army. His description is absolutely like what I have personally heard from other people who were in the army at the same time I was - in 70-71. Who had the bad judgement to go AWOL. Which for some reason happened occasionally. I'll hasten to add, that I personally NEVER experienced a single incident or interaction from a higher up that was in any way demeaning or improper. In fact my personal experience was pleasant to the point that I was sad to leave behind the several friends I made in the Army. But there sure were some bad folks who had returned from VietNam. It was best to stay out of their way. Many were drug addicts, unfortunately. They are the ones who experienced the special processing.
