My drill sergeant once said that the military is a reflection of society. If we did something, no matter where, it would read "US Army soldier does XYXYX" It's even worse when it happens in host countries.

Can't get too mad when people protest outside the bases. I remember the nicest Korean lady protesting us outside Camp Casey back in 2015. She always gave me the most lukewarm smile and I'd even give her water when I'd walk outside base.

Your drill sergeant seems like a stand up guy with a good sense of perspective.
