The military has launched an investigation into reports that male Marines have been sharing nude photos of female service members and vets in a secret Facebook group.
Since Jan. 30, more than two dozen women — many on active duty, including officers and enlisted service members — have been identified by their rank, full name and military duty station in photographs posted and linked to from a private Facebook page.
Veteran and Purple Heart recipient Thomas Brennan first posted about the Facebook group on his site the War Horse; he claims “hundreds of Marines” are being investigated in the matter. He told the Marine Corps Times that angry users put a “bounty on pictures of my daughter,” adding, “It has been suggested that my wife should be raped as a result of this, and people are openly suggesting I should be killed … Can you imagine being one of the victims?”
But hey, why not trust people who are in positions of power? After all, no one has ever betrayed trust.
