Female soldiers die from dehydration


Majikthise has a posting about a number of female soldiers who died of dehydration in Iraq. They refused to drink water during the day in order to avoid having to go to the latrine at night. The reason they didn't want to have to use the latrine at night? - they were afraid of being raped by their fellow soldiers. Lt. Gen. Ricardo Sanchez then ordered a coverup of their deaths.
