People ask… Do we really have a problem with sexual assault here at Hill AFB? Isn’t SARC just a reaction by the military to answer the critics in the civilian sectors? Military personnel don’t experience sexual assault, right? Aren’t we at least safer if we live here on base? Isn’t it true that the majority of the perpetrators are not associated with the military?
