1
00:00:01,440 --> 00:00:04,500
every year many women and men are 

2
00:00:04,500 --> 00:00:07,260
sexually harassed or sexually assaulted 

3
00:00:07,840 --> 00:00:10,310
by service members and other D . O . D . 

4
00:00:10,310 --> 00:00:13,750
Personnel . This is simply unacceptable 

5
00:00:13,870 --> 00:00:16,040
and I have zero tolerance for sexual 

6
00:00:16,040 --> 00:00:18,590
harassment or sexual assault . The 

7
00:00:18,590 --> 00:00:20,760
behavior is wrong and anyone who 

8
00:00:20,760 --> 00:00:23,038
engages in it will be held accountable . 

9
00:00:23,540 --> 00:00:25,770
In many cases . We're talking about bad 

10
00:00:25,770 --> 00:00:28,660
behavior . It can be criminal behavior 

11
00:00:29,640 --> 00:00:31,807
and I know a lot of us think well it's 

12
00:00:31,807 --> 00:00:33,196
not me but we still have 

13
00:00:33,196 --> 00:00:35,580
responsibilities . We need to hold each 

14
00:00:35,580 --> 00:00:37,302
other accountable . If you see 

15
00:00:37,302 --> 00:00:40,120
inappropriate behavior , speak up talk 

16
00:00:40,120 --> 00:00:42,120
directly to your colleagues so they 

17
00:00:42,120 --> 00:00:44,287
know their behavior is not okay or you 

18
00:00:44,287 --> 00:00:46,398
can report it to your supervisor . We 

19
00:00:46,398 --> 00:00:48,890
cannot tolerate this type of behavior 

20
00:00:50,140 --> 00:00:52,362
in the military health system . We also 

21
00:00:52,362 --> 00:00:54,307
treat people who experience sexual 

22
00:00:54,307 --> 00:00:56,362
assault and we do that work with the 

23
00:00:56,362 --> 00:00:59,910
utmost care and respect as military 

24
00:00:59,910 --> 00:01:02,021
medical members were in a position of 

25
00:01:02,021 --> 00:01:03,966
trust that we must safeguard as we 

26
00:01:03,966 --> 00:01:05,966
provide the medical care and mental 

27
00:01:05,966 --> 00:01:08,360
health support victims need to recover . 

28
00:01:09,070 --> 00:01:10,770
And then to hell if you have 

29
00:01:10,770 --> 00:01:12,714
