U.S. Solider Raped by U.S. Soldier?
It sounds like this woman's attacker might be tracked down through a DNA sample. But would the U.S. military want the world to know there are rapists in its ranks?

2. They'd better get to the bottom of this
This was a brutal assault. Can't help but wonder if a MAN who had been so attacked would have been kept in isolation like they were a criminal?

3. Her husband also is fearing for his own concern by not revealing...
his name.

It seems to me that it would be fairly easy to find the rapist, but what do I know?

4. Um
rapes occur in the military quite frequently. This isn't anything new.

6. they have everyone's dna (in the military) to identify 'em if they get
blowed up beyond recognition, thus no more tombs of the unknown soldiers. So yeah, they should be able to nail the bastard.
