Hack is one of the truly qualified Military Affairs critics and columnist in the US. Follow his column regularly, see the effort at getting first hand info from front line grunts and officers and you'll find more than just this one story to fuel your outrage. Read this messenger regularly and you'll find much more accurate info about the life of our forces than you will through mainline media.
I republish some of his columns in my blog as I think he speaks with a clear voice. The last one I published is on the Private Lynch Fable concocted by the media machine at the Pentagon.
I've snipped the URL to make it easier:

While this rape story is ONE horrifying story, there are many more. For those who are really interested start at his http://hackworth.com and find your way to his Soldiers for Truth organization.
It is worth the time and effort to be informed.
