Conduct Unbecoming
Truth check:
The U.S. military admitted that our soldiers in Afghanistan burned the bodies of two dead Taliban guerrillas and taunted insurgents about it, but did not mean it as a desecration. Major General Joason Kamiya stated, "Our investigation found there was no intent to desecrate the remains, but only to dispose them for hygienic reasons."
1. The US Military did burn bodies. True
2. The US Military actually apparently did intend to desecrate the remains... Video footage shows two soldiers watching the bodies burn and one of them reading the following statement over a loudspeaker: "You allowed your fighters to be laid down facing west and burned. You are too scared to retrieve their bodies. This just proves you are the lady boys we always believed you to be". So, in all honesty, that would be a blatantly false claim by the US Miltary.
Way to go, US Military!
