Missouri National Guards looted a Wal-Mart while searching for tornado survivors

A general once told me that a small but significant
percentage of soldiers in any unit are criminals at heart, and that one job of small
unit leaders is to prevent them from spreading the rot to other members of
the unit.

I thought of that when I read this
article revealing that a sergeant and three other members of the National
Guard pocketed some electronic gear at Wal-Mart in Joplin, Missouri, when sent
there to provide aid after part of the town was smashed by a huge tornado May
in 2011.  

Speaking of criminal activity, the former command master
chief of the USS Fort McHenry
was sentenced
to 60 days in the brig for assaulting crew members. He also supposedly has
some issues with pawing the buttocks of female sailors.
