Women that serve in combat are being sexually assaulted by their own comrades. This is nothing new it was also occurring the Vietnam War also. They are not being respected even though they are fighting for their lives and the U.S. men around them treat them less for their gender and it's not right at all. There were two women that died of dehydration because they were too scared to come out of their base to drink water because they were scared of going out in the dark where men tended to rape women like that. At some points they can't be heard if they're screaming because the loud generators around them. It's sad to know that instead of the male soldiers protecting the females because they're weaker than them instead they're just harming them. Daily the women there are also being sexually harassed or talked to in perverted manners. Also there's not that many people they can turn to because the people that they thought they could are the ones hurting them.
