Is is not the general consensus that the AF Academy is the most PC of all of the military institutions of higher ed?

No, it most certainly is not. Years of allegations of sexual assaults of female cadets have been ignored or worse.

As an Air Force veteran (enlisted) I am sorry to be even distantly associated with this sorry institution.

Years of allegations of sexual assaults of female cadets have been ignored or worse.

Quite the contrary, the allegations have not been ignored. Vigorous investigations have been conducted and many solutions (some good, some bad) have been advanced. The latest investigation culminated in the Fowler Commission report and the recent Agenda For Change launched by the Academy leadership.

The credibility of many of the rape charges is questionable as a large number have not been sustained in the courts. A good case can be made for many of the charges being launched by the "PC police" of the general media in accordance with their anti-military agenda. When comparing the sexual assault statistics of the AF Academy with those of most civilian universities, the Academy is a monastery in the midst of sexual chaos.

As an Air Force veteran (enlisted) I am sorry to be even distantly associated with this sorry institution.

I disagree. My association with the Academy is not so distant as yours and I would suggest that a closer and more informed look on your part might change your mind.
