That would lead me to believe there have been problems with internal leadership and unit culture driven by personalities. For instance there are many, many guys in my work area who love to sport "infidel" stickers, patches etc...then wear this paraphernalia around on deployment in front of our local hosts. Most of them have an attitude of "fuck the muj" and really could care less about the end state where we are deployed. One of our CSMs banned the patches/stickers and made a clear statement of what is acceptable in deportment and behavior. If this kind of action is not taken by our leadership then the troops think that anything is o.k.
