The Army is definitely involved in covering things up as related to child sexual abuse. Remember the Green Beret Sgt. 1st Class Charles Martland?

^{According to both the U.N. and the U.S. State Department, the practice in Afghanistan of recruiting, enslaving and sharing boys for sex is widespread.}

^{But it is not conducted or tolerated by the Taliban. The culprits are often Afghan police and military commanders supported by the U.S.}

^{That's what Sgt. 1st Class Charles Martland, a Green Beret from Milton, says he was trying to stop when, in 2011, he beat up an Afghan police commander that U.S. forces had put in power in a village in Afghanistan.}

^{The police chief had allegedly chained a young boy to a bed and repeatedly raped him.}

^{Martland and fellow soldiers claim their Army superiors told them to ignore widespread incidents of child rape by Afghan police and military commanders supported by the U.S.}

^{Now the Army wants to discharge Martland, someone who fellow soldiers and friends call a hero.}

His discharge has since been reversed thanks to congressional Reps like Duncan Hunter intervening.
