 Sexual assault is unacceptable. In the military it adversely affects mission readiness and the Navy is committed to preventing it. Chief of Naval Operations Admiral Jonathan Greener recently discussed the steps the Navy is taking to eradicate sexual assault and educate sailors on the issue. We need to be sure people understand the importance of this sexual assault challenge. We've had great great success in the in the Great Lakes region and in San Diego on some initiatives on proper climate and a proper environment that would tend to discourage sexual assault and the occasions that can lead to it. We're going to extend those fleet wide. Greener added that leaders are responsible for creating an environment where sailors are safe from sexual assault and that all sailors are responsible for preventing sexual assaults. There's an accountability piece here. Our leaders are accountable for the climate and the safety for their sailors. Our sailors deserve a safe environment to work in and I insist on it and we have to get there and so these kind of clarifications will be spelled out there and then we've got to execute. We've got to decide we're not going to have this anymore. All of us are all responsible and our leaders are accountable and it starts with me. The Navy has been focusing on getting to the left of sexual assault by holding a recent Navy wide sapper stand down and retraining all sapper advocates and recruiters.
