I decided to write about this one because this one stood out to me the most, it hit and connected some emotions of mine and my opinion on this particular case is very strong. Staff Sgt. Walker sexually assaulted Ms. Messick in 2011 in training, but she did not report it until later after she left the air force because she was scared of what would happen to her if she reported it sooner.

The National Center for Veterans Analysis and Statistics showed a phenomenal 42% increase in benefit utilization the year following the implementation of the new GI Bill (NCVAS, 2014). As a dean, and prior service member, Palm’s target audience was clearly other educators who may not have had quantifiable experience with veterans and their unique struggles as students. In the opening paragraphs, Palm uses Ethos to establish his authority on the subject of veteran’s needs. He informs the audience that before he pursued higher education, he served in the Marine Corp in Vietnam (Palm, 789).

It would be hard to accredit somebody who accused a head personal, of hurting harassing, and sexually abusing a military female. Women have a crucial role in the active military, being most represented in medical (30.5%) and administrative (30.1%) specialties, and sacrificing their lives in their noble efforts, for the safety of ours.
