The initial statement made was: "We had plenty of drunks on the trains in Germany. It seemed like most of them were U.S. Soldiers." As there was no other information provided, do you see how that singular statement puts the U.S. and/or its military in a bad light by what it implies?

My unit found that the most efficient way to move a bunch of drunken soldiers was for the NCO club to charter a bus or three. No one drove and everyone was together and under some sort of supervision- and everyone made it (alive and unjailed) to formation in the morning.
Great solution! It kept them from being unruly on passenger trains and creating a negative image.
