Germany military sexual misconduct report

Germany's defense minister didn't mince words about it: the numbers are "unacceptable," and action is the promise. What the report lays out is 40% of female soldiers in the country's military dealing with sexual misconduct inside one year, plus 19% of male soldiers saying they went through comparable treatment. The range of what's described covers unwanted touching and harassment all the way up to sexual violence. Reuters carries the reporting; Samuel is the writer on it.
