Witnesses testified on the report of the Defense Task Force on Sexual Assault in the Military Services. In their remarks they said that the military’s sexual assault office should be placed under Defense Secretary Robert Gates' command and that it should do more to help males, who could make up half the sexual assault victims in the military. They also said that commanders need to address sexual assault more openly with their troops to reinforce a stance of no tolerance and prevent assault. close
