Soldiers who kill and rape non-combatants should certainly be charged and tried.
Jar, I'm curious to what you think about the movie Word of Honor? If you haven't seen it, you should rent it. It deals with an extreme case of what we are talking about.
Disclaimer:
Occasionally, owing to the deficiency of the English language, I have used he/him/his meaning he or she/him or her/his or her in order to avoid awkwardness of style.
He, him, and his are not intended as exclusively masculine pronouns. They may refer to either sex or to both sexes!
