Actors In a Mandatory Briefing Portray A Scene Involving the Public Affairs-approved term "Sexual Assault"
CAMP PENDLETON, CA – Legislators and women's rights advocates are already hailing a new Department of Defense (DOD) policy to combat sexual assault by encouraging rapists to hand out DSTRESS cards to their victims.
DSTRESS is a telephone counseling service and website that troubled service members can contact anonymously.
"For too long the victims of sexual crimes have had to wait hours, even days, before receiving treatment," said Pentagon spokesman Jonathan Bucher. "However, under our new policy, they will have the ability to seek treatment within seconds."
