Picture here is Sergeant Stuart wait. The privilege of serving the United States and uniform is no longer limited to amount. That you please by the womens army koran taking this grooming and feminine grease is one of the 1st Lessons Learned by the recruits. That work demands that require of her perfect physical health or stamina. Im sure youve all heard the saying theres a right way a wrong way and the army way. Im done im a. Bit hard at it saying. That there was a. Model but i didnt. Turn right 150 with the helicopter youre everywhere and it doesnt matter with your own man or woman only that you and. I come out. On the 500. 00. Stocks because its a lot of work and its time to take it. There was a waiting list for the navy over a year and i knew i didnt wait that long so i had a friend to me about the coast guard and i went to the coast guard and they said that they could get me in within a month so. I said ok. I tried college and. I had. A good job but as angered and an east texas i bought my own little house on the military was something i always found until i come from the family i was always taught that every citizens duty to join the military if you can you should so i want to go ahead and join and start a career. But air force i was 17 years old i had a boyfriend that encouraged me to go in so thats why he didnt give you permission to go. When i was in high school i was impressed with the marines but i had met a colonel that used to run laps around the track after soccer practice and he said hed be perfect for the marine corps because a really smart and thats what the marine corps needs the professionalism the camaraderie everything about it and spared me. After i graduated high school i left for Orlando Florida which was the 1st time i was ever on an airplane and a life. Initially it was just wanting to go see the world because im from a really small town i had a College Scholarship to go play basketball but i instead opted to go into the military. You know what i chose to do. I come from a long line of military when we had somebody from every generation on both sides of the family all the way back to the revolutionary war i had served in the armed forces and i chose the marine corps because no one in my family had ever done that. Well of putting on a uniform every day and you know just getting out there and giving it my all and its a very proud feeling. That i would have done the camp over and over again it was create the cooler ottery that discipline everything it taught you who i wanted to be thats what they taught you. Obviously it was different taking a shower with different people all of a sudden good was pretty. But i disagree experience i was a 40 sailor every single report on me was. And great i knew what i needed to do and i was a great team winner. I really enjoyed the whole challenge of it i got several different awards and. It was mainly men i love that i could blend in and keep up with the guys and their work as hard as. The new economy was challenging and education was talk not my senior year i was selected to be one of the top 30 leadership positions by the Company Great officers there. After basic i went to the name of security for alaska i remember getting there you know issued a parka set up in my room and then he took me to the bar which was in her barracks and set down in a table were was me and about 10 other guys. And you know kind of felt like a piece of meat on a slab at that point and i never wanted to turn around and leave so much of my life that i couldnt. Yes yes. I. Did. I met corey december 17th of 2007 i was on watch when she got to the station and. Blew me away when she walked in. Right. Order ok thank you. The command told us that she was coming then there were some issues but we didnt none of the crew knew exactly what had happened and i didnt find out. For a long time. I was stationed in saginaw michigan. I was the only female in my section. I had a supervisor. To the place for i get calls at 3 oclock in the morning and he are telling me to come get him and im like i can im bad and he would then threaten me. Id walk in from training and hed be sleeping in my bed. When we went to one of the higher ups the chain of command they were all like his his Drinking Buddy and they told me just because i didnt like somebody they were going to switch me away from this guy. It was in the evening around taps and. He dont lock the door and hed come in and he had an erection and he tried to get me to touch him i took my right hand and i pushed him in the chest and started to yell for the other guys to kind of hear me. He hit me across. The left side of my face i remember. Holding the closet thinking what just happened. To my face hurt so. When we went to the command about it me and this petty officer who saw my face. They just they went away because they didnt want any kind of problems going on. A couple weeks later i needed the key to do my cleanup so i knocked on his door and he said ok yeah come on in here and here and i said no no im going to wait out here. And he screamed at me and he made me come in and he grabbed my own arm. The. And he raped me and his birth. Every thing came to a complete change the day that i was raped i got there in february by april i was drugged and raped for the 1st time i had like a cold or pneumonia like symptoms and so they sent me to get shut down and while i was waiting to be examined. And came in any help himself he said he was going to the bathroom he came into my room and and thats when he raped me the entire time i was screaming and yelling for help and for him to stop nobody came to the door nobody came to help me and maurice cure anything they made it very very clear. That. If i said anything they were going to kill me. You know in then of course i didnt have anyone to go talk to because the people that were perpetrating me were the police d. It was my 1st time ever and was had a tough time convincing myself that im still over. If this is happening to me you know i can only imagine surely im not the only one which i found out later going through the claims process that i wasnt. Its just after 3 am i see a shadow of a human head over my body next thing you know that im awake and like hes on top of me push my legs apart and put himself on top of me and start pulling at my shirt and i wake up and that hes on top of me.

He raped me 5 times we got tested. I had tricked and. Donna reed and i was pregnant d. He did. Rape me. 991 in congressional testimony it was estimated that 200000 women had been sexually assaulted so far in the u. S. Military if you take into account that women dont report because of the extreme retaliation and that was you know more than a decade ago i would say you could easily double that number and its probably somewhere near about half a 1000000 women have now been sexually assaulted in the u. S. Military. Is youll be a reflection of reality. In the world transformed. What will make you feel safe from. The isolation community. Are you going the right way or are you being less. Direct. What is true what is great. In the world corrupted you need to descend. To join us in the debt. Or im a bill or shall i say. One else seemed wrong why dont we all just dont call. Me old yet to say proud disdain become educated and in the game trade equals betrayal. When so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. Or in the current through our. Thanks it was prescribed to last 3 to 4 months this is cracks a team. Towel a pram this is the annex. Im tired of taking all these men i just want the v. A. To fix my job. I was having the most horrible pain in my face so i went to the dentist because i thought it was just my teeth or something was wrong. The doctor came in after the x. Rays and asked me if i had been in a car accident when he hit me in my face he dislocated my jaw and it sent both of my disk forward in my face starr i dont have any room i really should be in my face they told me id probably need a partial bone replacement for my bone it playing on my nerves for so long is starting to actually disintegrate ive been on a soft diet for 5 years now.

Was excited and completely just hyped up about going and all my family was proud of me. As my biggest hero. Told us of your own being taken care of and i guess thats one of the hard things that i have to accept because i told her that she would be. Whos in february we got a call. Once who is dying and he. Rubbed his hand all over my entire body and. He said i own all of this. And i was absolutely scared didnt know what to do i called my dad. When the 1st thing she said. And. I said. What happened he said i was right. And youre a virgin. Because. Tributes. Dont ever think. My main nerve in my spine was places and my hips are rotated. My title is director of military plans and personnel policy for the navy. We have specifically trained judge advocates our navy lawyers in our Naval Criminal Investigative Service those investigators are all specifically trained in Sexual Assault any report of a Sexual Assault is fully investigated in the United States navy they didnt take care of it for a year and a half they were tracking down witnesses they had all these students that are and they can walk them down and say hey youre only hold targets a statement. And i didnt and i went through 3 investigators it was like ok im giving this case thats what its sort of felt like oh right im giving this case im going to take care of it oh well this is really want to really dont have to deal with it females would come up to their commanders or their and ceos and say that they were either sexually assaulted or abused and i dont think it was taken seriously i think a lot of times a cursory investigation was done and they were basically told to just suck it up a member bring in a Young Service member been brutally raped and bring her in to see or command and try to make sure that this girl was take care properly and this idiot. The city. Towards top crocus built milk on a time the credibility of the witness was called into account had the potential victim had she made claims like this in the past there was a lot of witch hunting going on i was ordered to advise a victim of her rights for false statement when i knew that she wasnt lying i was asked to bring her in advise her of her rights like a criminal and interrogate her for false statement or in court until i got the truth out of her. What we hear again and again from soldiers who have been raped is that as bad as it was being raped what was as bad if not worse was to receive professional fratelli ation in their chosen career merely because they were raped when you report something. You better be prepared for the repercussions if a man gets accused of rape its said that the womans life i could choose to report it but if i wasnt if you know if they found that when i was saying wasnt to be truthful than i would be reduced in rank you could lose your rape you could lose rank you could lose your school if you file a false report d do you want to file a report. With the rape everything in the 1st my friend numerate me they sound leave me to 2 different times to my squad leader and he told me that there is nothing he can do about it doesnt have any proof they actually did charge me with adultery. I wasnt married he was they took me before make my hand the tank commander and he says you think this is funny and i said what do you mean his like the solid jokes you like what do you mean and he goes youre the 3rd girl report rape this week even as they all in cahoots you think of the game. Who are you know. Ok and harlow usually take a. Really. Hard. I mean. Like 14 months what. Is going on with the v. A. Mine is new. But we were there 1st and then. This goes everywhere with me. And this goes everywhere with me. You always have protection with jesus but sometimes you need just a little bit more. To go. It was they c of course they. They ordered they ordered a back x. Ray instead of that but if youre so make up. Shit of they should know you should know whats wrong with me like read my stuff and youll see that its my face its not my back its not my legs my arms its my baby need to prove i dont even know what your case is even though i dont even know why waste the gas money the trip anything it was completely a waste of time what a good veterans day right. So perfect way to spend. It. Because it was an isolated duty station they were in charge and we were just like cattle. So it was the 1st time i was drugged and raped i was this room where some of my friends and i only had like one or 2 drinks and when laid down it was like instantly i was not feeling well and came to having a pillow over my head in my friend. Raping me. That went on repeatedly. Most sex offenders are hunters just like any hunter they study their prey they study their movements to study the behaviors they study the environment. You have rapists that prey on other human beings they they stalk them they they wait until the victim is that the most vulnerable point in time to perpetrate their crimes a lot of times a victim as somebody that the suspect is very familiar with and theyre very aware of whats going on most sex offenders have this hidden persona that nobody ever sees except for the victim therefore when theyre caught or if somebody reports people dont tend to believe that because they dont see the typical sex offender if its an officer its an officer that has had a bit chilly in the past preyed on and enlisted they would do it once they get away with it and then they think wow this was pretty easy im going to try to get in particularly for a savvy perpetrator to work with in a relatively closed system like the military it becomes a prime. Its a target rich environment for a predator. When i say it was discharged i moved to seattle or things got really bad. I started to lose everything. Is homeless. The addiction to selling drugs crack and a guy. 40 percent of homeless female veterans have been raped while they were surfing they spit into such depression and it appears that they cant hold jobs they can hold their lives together and they end up on the streets when i 1st started training as at the gym and i look over and it was like the universe was like a gal. In my head i was like you are i know there are some special of our. Wow for hair when we 1st started dating it was hard. The biggest hurdle was not taking p. T. S. D. Personally it does get really stressful and sort of said to have never known for you know beforehand what she was sort of in her in her prime now she is anxious and sad a lot of. Going to go going to go perfect even. If they come out no.
