How bloody sad! SHAME!!!!!! I cried my eyes out. These women have more guts than any sitting politician. This isn't how to win wars. This only sets us all back decades. I will never be able to stand for the National Anthem ever again. Be sure to check out the Special Features; they have a retreat for these women at Whidby Island.

Of all the "Great" American institutions that everyone was raised to have pride in, that disappointed me when reality leaked out, this one really kicked me in the gut. Not that in an environment where brutality is key, and male power- the pinnacle, should I be surprised by these facts. It is just that they made such a deal of women in the military as a symbol of hard won equality. The reality is much more diseased: Institutionalized rape. "Yes boys, one of the tactics of warfare is systematic rape,and though we can't include that in boot camp training, just practice on your fellow recruits, preferably the females;maybe they'll go home, where they belong!"Many men join FOR the rape. Here women have been fed this patriotic line and all these career dreams,with complex reasons for joining,while the men know the true story, THEY live under military law and it won't touch them.Why are they above investigation by independent police, like the rest of America? Just Disgusting!

EXCELLENT documentary treated with the sensitivity the subject deserves.

"Our" military, "their" military... hmmm. When I thought about this, I remembered the women who've come forward to complain about the treatment they received from their male colleagues at "our" RCMP. I figure it beggars belief that "our" male soldiers have a greater sense of cultural sensitivity, gender awareness (and plain old right and wrong) than "their" male soldiers. Just pure logic, given the fact all three of the organizations I'm speaking of belong to the same testosterone drenched school of thought. And anyone is likely to experience much the same thinking in all 3 arenas. There would be a difference in scope however, based on the relative size of each organization.

This documentary is about the American military - not "our" military.

The stories of the victims in this documentary are very disturbing. It's worth watching, though. It's important to be aware of the problems in our military.

Everyone should watch this, especially if you know a young woman who wants to go into the military. The treatment of these survivors is completely dishonorable and violates everything our military supposedly stands for today.
