Sgt. Robert Bales used steroids and punched Afghan driver -- but concerns never reported

Sgt. Robert Bales used steroids and punched Afghan driver -- but concerns never reported before massacre
Some U.S. troops at Camp Belambai in Kandahar Province used alcohol and steroids and made ethnic or racial slurs against Afghans, a lax atmosphere that appeared to have been tolerated by some mid-level leaders, the investigation found.
The week before the shootings, Bales used steroids while on a mission and one fellow non-commissioned officer was worried about his erratic behavior, but those concerns were not passed on to camp leadership, the report said.
