They are "defenders of justice and democracy".....culled from the lowest rungs of society - often with no other options, many with a demonstrated habit of making bad decisions...and some in the classic "go to war or go to jail" scenario.

-Rough men stand ready- sort of thing. Plenty is done, but that doesn;t mean that what is done actually prevents rape. Let me just say here, so much as an accusation of rape is unimaginably horrible as a soldier. You are guilty until proven innocent under UCMJ, effectively. OTOH Same as civilian life, rape is an under-reported crime. Those that are reported will end terribly for the accused (and accuser- it;s often a career ender for both parties) whether innocent or guilty. It's a shit sandwich for everyone involved. Of course the armed forces sweep this shit under the rug, it;s a PR nightmare.

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
