People downvoting are either poorly educated or in denial.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rape_during_the_liberation_of_France

White American soldiers were much less likely to be executed for rape. 130 of the 180 troops charged with rape by the Army in France were African American. U.S. forces executed 29 soldiers for rape, 25 of them African American.

Of course with a bit of that racist America flavour.

People are downvoting because the topic is survival rate and while rape by military stsff is a huge problem, it isn’t something that is clearly linked to these particular soldiers.
