RE: Women in the Military More Likely to Be Traumatized by Sexual Assault Than Combat

November 25, 2012 at 8:25 pm (This post was last modified: November 25, 2012 at 9:00 pm by The Grand Nudger.)

A court martial would be nice, but isn't required for things to end terribly for the accused. Units are tight knit, stigma sticks, promotions and assignments are affected. People have "accidents" in stairwells. I'm not throwing my hat in with how this is handled (no more in the case of the service than I do in the case of civilian life), just offering my anecdotal experience.

(all of the problems associated with rape, reporting, prosecution, standards of evidence etc that are present in the civilian world are equally present in the military world, perhaps agitated by several factors...and then further exacerbated by a system of justice that is markedly inferior to the civilian one in this regard..add to that a penchant for punishing people "in-house", it's practically a trade paper in how not to handle shit correctly - I think that on this point we both agree, yeah?)

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
