      She lied... she didn't excel and the Admiral DID condemn the outburst strongly.

      @@Ian-pn1ff The proof is my eye witness account... I was there when the Admirals were asked about women in jets where they were very forceful in dealing with the young male pilots who complained and I was there in training with her in flight school. Not only that, but I was assigned to take her out and let her fly to get stick time outside her desk job as an Admiral's aide. Her flying skills were avg at best and honestly I'd suggest she was a bit below avg on the controls.

    I served in the United States Navy during the Vietnam Era. I understand. Some women are being forced out of the service when they report that their senior officer raped them. It doesn’t seem like a whole lot has changed. Their attitude is that the woman is at fault.

      Aidah Di Leoni PEOPLE NEED TO BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE. I know a person this happened to, she was paid off to shut up. It was the Navy. This is an atrocity to all victims. The people who commit these crimes are Scott free. And the message sent is what? Service men can get away with sexual assault.

      The type of men who willingly join the military are usually of two tribes, the ones who believe in honor and service and those who believe they can rape, molest and kill without ever being held accountable

    I'll go against the grain here and suggest, that maybe the best way to lower the occurrence of sexual assault in the military is to simply cut back on the military?
    The US currently has more military budget than the next 10 biggest military spenders combined, most of which are allies.
    The wars of the past 30 years have basically been a gold mine for the rich while utterly exploiting foreign countries through various war crimes, giving arms to militias, which surprise surprise then turn against the US, which has been occupying their homeland for years.
    But since cutting back on military spending is somehow off the table, then MORE FEMALE WAR CRIMINALS, I guess?

    I now wonder what they do to civilians in Iraq and Afghanistan since there is wartime immunity unlike here where they would be prosecuted if the cases were handled correctly.

      In war it is common for soldiers to rape and molest, the spoils of war...if you impregnate a nations women against their will the children will grow up hated, continuing the war long after the opposing nation has gone home...destroys a nation from within

    Ok, time for the truth....I retired from service just as women were serving along side the men. All for it, but you have to serve just as a man will which requires heavy lifting, long hours, little sleep and attention to detail. Oh! and you can not get pregnant when I need you! What am I saying? I lost about a between 25-40% of my females before and during deployments, THERE ARE NO REPLACEMENTS FOR THEM!!! Replacement is always 6 months down the line and guess what, you have to train that replacement so, it's even further down the line!
    What happen when you have a 19 year old guy with a 19 year old girl in tight quarters? That's why I lose 25% of the females to pregnancy! And guess what....it's happening from the bottom to the top!
    I don't mean to offend....Peace!
