I thought rape was basically legal for soldiers? Pretty much a job perk.
The U.S. army executed several of its soldiers and a few British ones for the crime of rape during WW2.
You watch too much propaganda.
The "consequences" for those involved in the Mỹ Lai Massacre (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/My_Lai_massacre) paints a different picture.
That said, I have some close friends in the military, including one who is a Military Defense Counsel. Enforcement, when it happens, is quite strict.
