A naked female sailor was handcuffed to a bed rack and forced to role-play an angry lesbian spat with another woman — all while being videotaped by other sailors.
A dog handler who refused to visit a prostitute was duct-taped and locked in a kennel full of dog feces.
A female sailor alleged that she was sexually assaulted by another sailor, but it was never reported up the chain of command.
In all, a Judge Advocate General Manual investigation found 93 incidents involving hazing and other improper behavior in the Military Working Dog Division at Naval Support Activity Bahrain in 2005 and 2006.
Despite it all, the chief in charge of the kennel was promoted, and the investigation into the matter sat on the shelf, with no apparent discipline for anyone in a leadership role.
