Military docu banned by US Air force - too rough

[Hauldren Collider]

Good god, I can see it now. Alby will be the perfect bureaucratic pencil pusher, obsessing over all the stupid rules out of absurd pride in an organization to which he barely belongs.

SAPR: Sexual Assault Prevention and Response

SHARP: Sexual Harassment/Assault Response and Prevention

Different branches calling the same thing different things.

Dinner, you're the most ignorant jackass I know of that claims to be a veteran. Would be acceptable at any civilian business?

Speaking of ignorant jackasses, how are you slowwy? We're talking about banning people from seeing a video even on their free time not during work hours, jackass. Yes, I take exception to that kind of censorship.

What? Is there more to this story than the article which said nothing like that?

Oh wait. Wrong as usual.

[Al B. Sure!]

This is why the attitude expressed by regexcellent and HC is so wrong:

An Army sergeant at the Military Academy has been accused of videotaping female cadets in the showers a West Point, a defense official said on Wednesday, the latest in a series of sex-related incidents that has rocked the armed forces.

Let's all listen to Albert FEEEMAALEEES! Speer on the topic of women's rights and treating women with respect

[regexcellent]

Why am I not surprised that Alby is taking even the ****ing horrible sexual harassment seminars in OCS with an utmost amount of motivation?

Alby, how do you feel about safety briefs and suicide prevention seminars?

[DaShi]

I'm siding with Alpert on this issue. Sexual harassment and assaults by the military is inexcusable and brings great shame upon our nation.

[Alexander's Horse]

all I'll say is the modern battlefield is a very strange mix of puritanism and depravity

Seeing soldiers form prayer circles while others nearby were watching porn for example. No drinking while abuse of prescription drugs was rife. Units side by side from different countries with widely different rules about these things. For example some armies, like the French give their troops a wine ration. You can't take it away from them. The German HQ in Marz E Shariff doubled a beer hall after hours...

I could go on, and I did sometimes wonder if these anomalies were contributing to the high rates of stress related illness and even suicide.

Both God and the Devil are patient.

The U.S. Naval Academy is investigating allegations that three members of its football team sexually assaulted a female midshipman at an off-campus house last year, a Pentagon spokesman said Friday, and a lawyer for the woman says she was "ostracized" on campus after she reported it.

It's inappropriate, unprofessional, hinders unit cohesion which directly affects operational effectiveness, and is antithetical to the Corps' core value of honor.

Already at TBS and at OCS we received several classes, discussions, and EDG's (ethical decision games) about sexual harassment and sexual assault and yes, they are related. The command climate that condones sexual harassment will inevitably be plagued by sexual assault. This is an important issue and the Marine Corps takes it very seriously.

Well said, comrade! For the revolution!

God I can only imagine the uproar if people knew about some of the stuff coming out of Japan these days....
