Reports Of Sexual Assault At Military Academies Shot Up 18% During The Last School Year – By Micaela Burrow (Daily Caller) / Mat 10, 2023

Reported incidents of sexual assault at U.S. military academies jumped 18% during the 2021-2022 school year compared to the year prior, according to a Pentagon report released Friday and The Associated Press, citing U.S. officials.

Nearly one in five female cadets at the Army, Navy and Air Force academies said they experienced unwanted sexual contact in the most recent school year, according to the annual report. The number of estimated instances of sexual harassment also grew to 3,939 in the 2021-2022 school year, including more than half of women and one-fifth of men, according to a supplementary survey that compared results to the 2017-2018 academic year

The service academies “observed an alarming increase in the estimated prevalence of sexual assault, sexual harassment, and other concerning behaviors. These corrosive behaviors require your immediate attention,” Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin wrote in an accompanying memo to academy administrators.
