And it offers a plugin hybrid that gets a projected 100 mpge. Of course, theres still one thing it cant do. Introducing the entirely new ford fusion. Its an entirely new idea of what a car can be. It has long been a shameful secret inside the u. S. Military. The widespread epidemic of rape and Sexual Assault. For our countrys defenders, finding themselves defensiveless and often without a way to seek justice. Now, many of them are telling their stories in a powerful and moving oscarnominated documentary. Women have reached some of the highest echelons in the military. They are fighter pilots. At the controls of marine one and have earned silver stars for courage under fire as well as a generals four stars. While they may be succeeding on the front lines there is an invisible battle taking its toll. Listen to these women. The day i was raped he hit me in the head and knocked me out. I remember holding the closet thinking, what just happened . Reporter their stories are at the heart of the oscarnominated documentary the invisible war. If this is happening to me surely im not the only one. Reporter a film that shines a light on a hidden epidemic. According to the department of Veterans Affairs some 30 of women in the military have been raped or sexually assaulted while serving their country. Just astounded by the statistics. I mean, 19,000 men and women are being sexually assaulted in the u. S. Military. Reporter the film unveils not just high prevalence of attacks but also focuses on the militarys response. You keep hearing the same stories again and again. Three times we heard a story about a woman, single, raped by a married man but she was threatened to be charged with adultery. Reporter jessica hundred ves, one of the survivors whose story is highlighted in the film. The military was something i always wanted to do. I come from a military family, i wanted to join and start a career. Reporter did you enlist . I did. Yes, maam. Reporter tell me what you did. I was crew chief on an f15, i was responsible for the aircraft, top to do tbottom. I wanted to retire from the military. I was retired with ptsd. Reporter tell me what happened. A guy was in an adjoining room, he broke in through my bathroom, raped me, walked back out, grabbed his book bag and didnt say anything to anybody and left. Reporter he told authorities he stopped when she said no but while jessica was transferred to another base, the man she accused of raping her was given a commendation for his work. Ultimately the military command weighed in and dismissed the case. I felt like this was a threat to justice and this is so wrong. Reporter in fact, only 8 of assault cases go to trial. Its fully controlled by the chain of command, not an impartial judicial system like we expect as americans. Reporter susan burke represents jessica and dozens other servicemen and women in a lawsuit against the military. From my perspective we have the supreme who are the bravest among us, the most willing to get out there and sacrifice to defend the nation, they dont enjoy the same justice that we as americans take for granted. Reporter not just that your predator wont be punished,ed chances are you will be. You lose your career. Every survivor who had the courage to report, all of them drummed out of the service. Reporter the case was recently dismissed. They said rape is a hazard to military service and i cant believe this is reality. Its unnerving, at best. Reporter that rape is a hazard of military service . Yes. If the activity the buzz phrase is incident to service. Its an occupational hazard. More women are raped that injured in combat even. Reporter its important to emphasize, to hear someone hear you say that and say proof that women shouldnt be in the military, more men are raped than women. More men are raped than women in the military. Reporter the military reaction to the film, far from criticizing it, the military has been using the film in its Sexual Assault training program. We estimate that in 2012 alone, 10 of the military saw the film. 235,000 men and women, so we hope that changes culture. But again, the most important change has to come at the top. Reporter and that may be happening, within days of screening the film, secretary of defense leon panetta called for change. Sexual assault has no place in the military. It is a violation of everything that the u. S. Military stands for. Reporter jessica hundred ves and susan burke say relying on the military to correct the problem is naive. Congress needs to act to change the law. If congress doesnt step forward and fix it, what we have weve made our troops second class citizens in our own nation. Reporter can we fix it . They have a power to eradicate rape and eradicate Sexual Assault. Its doable. It just needs to be done. It doesnt have to take another 20 years or even a year or two this can be done immediately and effectively. Reporter zero tolerance. There is no excuse. A powerful documentary, indeed, that leads us to tonights closing arguments. Should the u. S. Military adopt a zero tolerance policy when it comes to Sexual Assault . Should the law be changed . We want to know what you think. You can weigh in on the Nightline Facebook page or tweet us nightline or cynthia mcfadden. Sunday night is oscar night here on abc beginning 7 00 p. M. In the east, 4 00 p. M. In the west. Were wondering if invisible war will win. Thank you for watching. Good night, america. If loving you is wrong i dont wanna be right [ record scratch ] what . its not bad for you. It just tastes that way. [ female announcer ] honey nut cheerios cereal
