"There were accusations about a civilian guy raping a female civilian in the 252 barracks and law enforcement got involved and the guy was gone off island real quick"

Not sure if it is the exact case to which you are referring, but that happened while I was there. Dude had a wife and kid and was REAL short. He claimed the chick was hitting on him so he broke into her room later on and she screamed. His ass was on a plane out of there within hours.

As far as the Chaplain's assistant, that really floored me. When I was there, the Chaplain's assistant drown and afterwards it was reported that a lot of "implicating" materials were found in his room.

Also, one soldier admitted to me at the Tiki one night that he was gay and that there were plenty of others out there at that time as well. But he didn't come onto me and neither did any of the rest for that matter.
