Each year hundreds of servicemen and women are sexually assaulted by their fellow soldier, airman and shipmates while serving in the United States Military. Many are faced with constant humiliation, re-vicitimization and even loose their job simply because they reported the assault All while the assaulter continue on with their careers without any punishment. This can not go on for much longer. What are you willing to do to end sexual assault in the military?

May 30th, 2009 would be the 3rd annual Military Sexual Trauma and Sexual Assault Awareness Day. We must try to change the way the military deals with sexual assault allegation and give each and every past, present and future survivor the rights that they deserve and put each criminal behind bars.
