Traffic around the old 'nose suddenly spiked yesterday, so I checked the stats and most of the new hits are coming from people searching for some variation on "national guard mud wrestling pics". Thanks to the wonders of web searching, this query leads people to this post of mine from last February.
Naturally this piqued my curiosity. A new military scandal? This time with muddy ladies? Reenactments of that scene in Stripes?
It turns out that's pretty much right. Some soldiers have been demoted after throwing a mud-wrestling party at Camp Bucca in Iraq.
The incident allegedly was organized by sergeants, and involved men and women assigned to guard Iraqi detainees transferred there from notorious Abu Ghraib prison, according to an Army report obtained by The News.
Investigators quoted a witness who said that sergeants involved also were lending their rooms to male and female soldiers for sex parties.
But, said Eve Bucca, "We are still very proud of the camp and of the men and women who serve there."
And yes, there are pictures, you sickos.
