The number of people getting discharged for misconduct isn't necessarily indicative of the level of misconduct that is actually occurring, it simply shows that there are more soldiers getting caught in the act of misconduct and that more conduct is being reported and also that more of the reported acts of misconduct are actually being dealt with correctly as opposed to being outright ignored.
If you think misconduct in the military is something new or is 'getting worse' you're sadly mistaken.
