Fragging

<h2 id="motivation">Motivation</h2>
Soldiers have killed colleagues since the beginning of armed conflict, with many documented instances throughout history. However, the practice of fragging seems to have been relatively uncommon in the U.S. military until the Vietnam War. The prevalence of fragging was partially based on the ready availability of explosive weapons such as fragmentation hand grenades. Grenades were untraceable to an owner and left no ballistic evidence. <a href="/facts/M18_Claymore_mine/w0Qwa3s0">M18 Claymore mines</a> and other explosives were also occasionally used in fragging, as were firearms, although the term, as defined by the military during the Vietnam War, applied only to the use of explosives to kill fellow soldiers.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:5" href="#fn:5">5</a>: 1, 19 <a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:6" href="#fn:6">6</a> Most fragging incidents were in the <a href="/facts/United_States_Army/WACWBEK9">Army</a> and <a href="/facts/United_States_Marine_Corps/J8JDlJG2">Marine Corps</a>. Fragging was rare among <a href="/facts/United_States_Navy/xYK0fUou">Navy</a> and <a href="/facts/United_States_Air_Force/7MxWBYlc">Air Force</a> personnel, who had less access to grenades and weapons than did soldiers and Marines.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:7" href="#fn:7">7</a>: 30–31 
The first known incidents of fragging in South Vietnam took place in 1966, but events in 1968 appear to have catalyzed an increase in fragging. After the <a href="/facts/Tet_Offensive/ImMHIwCv">Tet Offensive</a> in January and February 1968, the Vietnam War became increasingly unpopular in the United States and among American soldiers in Vietnam, many of them conscripts. Secondly, racial tensions between white and black soldiers and marines increased after the <a href="/facts/Assassination_of_Martin_Luther_King_Jr./YY1zXTIC">assassination of Martin Luther King Jr.</a> in April 1968.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:8" href="#fn:8">8</a>: 19–21  With troops reluctant to risk their lives in what was perceived as a lost war, fragging was seen by some enlisted men "as the most effective way to discourage their superiors from showing enthusiasm for combat".<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:9" href="#fn:9">9</a>

Morale plummeted among soldiers and marines. In 1971, a USMC colonel declared in the <a href="/facts/Armed_Forces_Journal/WRfSWllo">Armed Forces Journal</a> that "The morale, discipline, and battle worthiness of the U.S. Armed Forces are, with a few salient exceptions, lower and worse than at any time in this century and possibly in the history of the United States."<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:10" href="#fn:10">10</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:11" href="#fn:11">11</a>
The U.S. military reflected social problems and issues in the U.S. such as racism, drug abuse, and resentment toward authoritarian leaders. As the U.S. began to withdraw its military forces from Vietnam, some American enlisted men and young officers lost their sense of purpose for being in Vietnam, and the hierarchical relationship between enlisted men and their officers deteriorated. The resentment directed from enlisted men toward older officers was exacerbated by generational gaps, as well as different perceptions of how the military should conduct itself. Enforcement of military regulations, especially if done overzealously, led to complaints and sometimes threats of physical violence directed toward officers.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:12" href="#fn:12">12</a>
A number of factors may have influenced the incidence of fragging. The demand for manpower for the war in Vietnam caused the armed forces to lower their standards for inducting both officers and enlisted men. The rapid rotation of personnel, especially of officers who served (on average) less than six months in command roles, decreased the stability and cohesion of military units. Most important of all, perhaps, was the loss of purpose in fighting the war, as it became apparent to all that the United States was withdrawing from the war without having achieved any sort of victory. Morale and discipline deteriorated.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:13" href="#fn:13">13</a>: 12–18 
Most fragging was perpetrated by enlisted men against officers. Enlisted men, in the words of one company commander, "feared they would get stuck with a lieutenant or platoon sergeant who would want to carry out all kinds of crazy <a href="/facts/John_Wayne/9MIwKPdz">John Wayne</a> tactics, who would use their lives in an effort to win the war single-handedly, win the big medal, and get his picture in the hometown paper".<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:14" href="#fn:14">14</a>: 84–85  Harassment of subordinates by a superior was another frequent motive. The stereotypical fragging incident was of "an aggressive career officer being assaulted by disillusioned subordinates". Several fragging incidents resulted from alleged racism between black and white soldiers. Attempts by officers to control drug use caused others. Most known fragging incidents were carried out by soldiers in support units rather than soldiers in combat units.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:15" href="#fn:15">15</a>: 61–122 
Soldiers sometimes used non-lethal smoke and tear-gas grenades to warn superiors that they were in more serious danger if they did not change their behavior. A few instances occurred—and many more were rumored—in which enlisted men pooled their money for "bounties" on particular officers or non-commissioned officers to reward soldiers for fragging them.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:16" href="#fn:16">16</a>: 25, 37–42

According to author George Lepre, the total number of known and suspected fragging cases using explosives in Vietnam from 1969 to 1972 totalled nearly 900, with 99 deaths and many injuries. This total is incomplete, as some cases were not reported, nor were statistics kept before 1969 (although several incidents from 1966 to 1968 are known). Most of the victims or intended victims were <a href="/facts/Officer_(armed_forces)/FDFw2Bpd">officers</a> or non-commissioned officers. The number of fraggings increased in 1970 and 1971 even though the U.S. military was withdrawing and the number of U.S. military personnel in Vietnam was declining.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:19" href="#fn:19">19</a>: 44–47 <a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:20" href="#fn:20">20</a>: 155 
An earlier calculation by authors Richard A. Gabriel and Paul L. Savage, estimated that up to 1,017 fragging incidents may have taken place in Vietnam, causing 86 deaths and 714 injuries of U.S. military personnel, the majority officers and NCOs.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:21" href="#fn:21">21</a>
By the end of the war, at least 450 officers were killed in fraggings; the U.S. military reported at least 600 U.S. soldiers killed in fragging incidents with another 1,400 dying under mysterious circumstances.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:22" href="#fn:22">22</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:23" href="#fn:23">23</a>
Fragging statistics include only incidents involving explosives, most commonly grenades. Several hundred murders of U.S. soldiers by firearms occurred in Vietnam but most were of enlisted men killing other enlisted men of nearly equal rank. Fewer than ten officers are known to have been murdered by firearms. However, rumors and claims abound of the deliberate killing of officers and non-commissioned officers by enlisted men under battlefield conditions. The frequency and number of these fraggings, indistinguishable from combat deaths, cannot be quantified.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:24" href="#fn:24">24</a>: 26, 220–221 

<h3>Response</h3>
The U.S. military's responses to fragging incidents included greater restrictions on access to weapons, especially grenades, for soldiers in non-combat units and post-fragging "<a href="/facts/Lockdown/nvGLyEdD">lockdowns</a>" in which a whole unit was isolated until after an investigation. For example, in May 1971, the U.S. Army in Vietnam temporarily halted the issuance of grenades to nearly all units and soldiers in Vietnam, inventoried stocks of weapons, and searched soldiers' quarters, confiscating weapons, ammunition, grenades, and knives. This, however, failed to reduce fragging incidents as soldiers could easily obtain weapons in a flourishing black market among nearby Vietnamese communities. The U.S. military also attempted to diminish adverse publicity concerning fragging and the security measures it was taking to reduce it.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:25" href="#fn:25">25</a>: 128–142 
Only a few fraggers were identified and prosecuted. It was often difficult to distinguish between fragging and enemy action. A grenade thrown into a foxhole or tent could be a fragging, or the action of an enemy infiltrator or saboteur. Enlisted men were often close-mouthed in fragging investigations, refusing to inform on their colleagues out of fear or solidarity. Sentences for fragging convictions were severe—but the few men convicted often served fairly brief prison sentences. Ten fraggers were convicted of murder and served sentences from ten months to forty years with a mean (average) prison time of about nine years.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:26" href="#fn:26">26</a>: 140–141, 181–182, 229 

<h3>Influence</h3>
In the Vietnam War, the threat of fragging caused many officers and NCOs to go armed in rear areas and to change their sleeping arrangements as fragging often consisted of throwing a grenade into a tent where the target was sleeping. For fear of being fragged, some leaders turned a blind eye to drug use and other indiscipline among the men in their charge. Fragging, the threat of fragging, and investigations of fragging sometimes disrupted or delayed tactical combat operations. Officers were sometimes forced to negotiate with their enlisted men to obtain their consent before undertaking dangerous patrols.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:27" href="#fn:27">27</a>: 175–176 
The breakdown of discipline, including fragging, was an important influence on the U.S. change to an all-volunteer military in place of conscription. The last conscript was inducted into the army in 1973.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:28" href="#fn:28">28</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:29" href="#fn:29">29</a> The volunteer military moderated some of the coercive methods of discipline previously used to maintain order in military ranks.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:30" href="#fn:30">30</a>: 183

In 2012, according to <a href="/facts/NATO/dCeTddMY">NATO</a>, 51 coalition service members died due to the deliberate actions by members of the Afghan forces. Another 65 NATO soldiers were killed in insider attacks between 2007 and 2011.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:33" href="#fn:33">33</a> The increase in so-called "green-on-blue attacks" prompted U.S. officials to revamp the screening process of potential Afghan recruits as Afghan military leadership identified "hundreds" of Afghan soldiers within their ranks who were linked to the <a href="/facts/Taliban/VJC0WJlq">Taliban</a> insurgency or harbored <a href="/facts/Anti-Americanism/wUu2k8X1">anti-American views</a>.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:34" href="#fn:34">34</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:35" href="#fn:35">35</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:36" href="#fn:36">36</a>
Most of the attackers in these incidents were members of the special <a href="/facts/Afghan_Local_Police/DnbEQ1AN">Afghan Local Police</a> (ALP) units, who operated as a local tribal force and were known to have ties to the Taliban.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:37" href="#fn:37">37</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:38" href="#fn:38">38</a> They were also known to use drugs and were sometimes reported for abusing civilians.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:39" href="#fn:39">39</a>
The <a href="/facts/Long_War_Journal/snbLRYgN">Long War Journal</a> reported on such attacks, counting 155 since 2008 to June 11, 2017, resulting in 152 Coalition dead and 193 wounded.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:40" href="#fn:40">40</a> <a href="/facts/Afghan_National_Army/FwFCvlII">ANA fighters</a> sometimes fled to the Taliban, which posted videos 'welcoming' the fleeing fighters. NATO commanders initially stated that an estimated 90% of the attacks were due to cultural differences and personal enmity, while the Afghan government disagreed and blamed the problem on "infiltration by foreign spy agencies", including those of "neighboring countries".<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:41" href="#fn:41">41</a>
To reduce insider attacks, joint operations between U.S. and Afghan forces were reduced and coalition soldiers were reminded to be respectful.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:42" href="#fn:42">42</a>
