OT: Sex Scandal at Australia's Military Academy.

[Carl Robinson]

Off-topic:   I suppose this story's already gone around the world earlier this week, the female cadet at Australia's Defence Force Academy who had consensual sex with a male cadet who, unbeknownst to her, was broadcasting the occasion live on Skype to a half-dozen mates in an adjoining room.  She went to the media with the story which exploded into quite a controversy.    As the Defence Minister attacked, the Australian military, as usual, closed ranks.   The behaviour of other cadets down-right horrific, including shave creaming her room and publicly villifying her.    The story is also starting to bring out a raft of similar stories.   Not a good "look" for the Aussie Military already blackened by a Navy scandal involving drugs and charges of human rights violations by the Army up in Afghanistan.  

Here's how it happened.

The  Army cadet who did the Skipe should  be kicked out of the academy for conduct unbecoming an officer and a gentleman, followed by the other cadets - male & female who vilified cadet Kate.  It's a total violation of trust of the worst kind.

What a sorry spectacle. Here's a reminder of more honourable days for the diggers.
