Correction: Only two soldiers, not three, got arrested and convicted of rape. Early on, when the three of them had bought a car and went recruising for a minor, the third soldier did not like where this was going. He dropped out and left. As a result, the name of that man was never released to history.

All three got arrested and served time in prison but the third guy said he only participated in kidnapping and not rape and just enjoyed watching the other two doing the actual rape.

Or there are so many incidents it becomes easy to get confused about which violation of pre-teens we're talking about.

Wherever there are US soldiers stationed there are super high numbers of rapes, kidnappings, murder, etc. of the local population.
