[Vision2020] Questions about Abuse Sentence

[My Two Cents]

SPC Sivitz is the first of several soldeirs to be court-martialed.

He plead guilty and was sentenced accordingly.

My guess is that SPC Sivitz' conviction is a result of a plea agreement that 
may include his testimony against other soldiers.

This specific sentence (per se) will not be accepted very eagerly in the 
Mideast.  However, it is my sincerest belief that subsequent sentences will be 
much more harsh.
