Similarly, in March, four Air Cavalry troopers, convicted of participating in the rape-murder of a 20-year-old Vietnamese farm girl during a reconnaissance patrol, were all dishonorably discharged and given sentences ranging from eight years to life, according to their degree of involvement in the crime. Last January, one Marine was sentenced to ten years and two others to life imprisonment...
