It depends on what you meant. Of course there were likely to be atrocities that were not caught, as there are always more crimes than are discovered, but there is no basis for speculating as to the extent. To rely on Kerry's testimony is to rely on witnesses which were often found to be false or unwilling to provide further material to allow for examination of claims. To state that the incidence must have been very high, based on his testimony, is, I think, slanderous, because it treats rumor and subsequently discovered invention as fact. Not that you intended it at all, of course, but one had better have more solid data when impugning a large percentage of combat vets...
