    I agree, but we cannot hold anyone but the people that committed the crimes responsible for those crimes.

    What about the leaders who maintained lax discipline/supervision. Someone at some level of command there should have prevented what happened.

    I agree completely. Those at the top were not doing their jobs, but the military has already addressed this issue. The commander and XO were both relieved with letters in their jacket that will prevent them from ever getting another command. The top enlisted was basicly retired. Those that physically committed the offenses have been tried and found guilty.

    How much further should they go up the chain?
