Women in Combat: A Senator’s Story
Senator Martha McSally had an impressive military career. She was a U.S. Air Force pilot veteran, and after a 26- year career, rose to the rank of full Colonel. She also revealed in powerful Senate testimony that during her years in the military, she was raped by a superior officer. Now, she wants to do something to help prevent such abuse - Senator McSally recently introduced legislation targeting how armed services tries to prevent assaults, build support for victims, and improve how these cases are investigated and prosecuted. Senator McSally explains, “It’s a moral issue. It’s a readiness issue.”
