I don’t disagree with what you say. But clearly there are issues in the area of sex. For example, a stunning number of female sailors become pregnant on board ship. What I don’t know is if anyone is ever held accountable for these incidents.

Another issue is military women claiming sex assaults. They tell stories of how they travel in pairs, using a buddy system, when on military installations. This shocks me that women would be fearful of their fellow military members. I don’t know if these stories are true but if so, again, is anyone held accountable?

Regarding women becoming pregnant, its obvious that there is a breach, because as I understand , sexual activity even if consensual, is against military regulations.

The answer is a return to traditional moral behavior guided by the same traditional moral values.

Will improve fitness of military. Better outcomes for individual lives.

Sexual assault toward females probably mirrors the civilian population. It’s bad and getting worse. The largest share of sexual assault in the military is homosexual predators, though you’d never know it from all the mandatory training. Sexual relationships are not illegal, unless one or more is married or the conduct constitutes fraternization or conduct unbecoming.

As far as accountability, it varies (by rank usually). This case is rare, with most Command level officers quietly retiring, while junior officers and NCOs will get demoted, do hard time, and or get a BCD.
