What could be worse than being raped by someone in whom you placed your trust?

Thousands of veterans and service members know the answer to that question: being raped, and then being shunned and revictimized by your colleagues, comrades, and chain of command – the people with whom you live, work, and upon whom you depend for your very life – while they protect and even promote your attacker.

One U. S. Navy veteran shares her tale of innocence lost – and a soul reclaimed.

Susan Ganger recounts the tale of her rape by two shipmates, her chain of command's refusal to allow her to report the events, and how it lead her to attempt suicide.

Today, Susan is an activist, working to support victims of Military Sexual Trauma so that she may help heal the injured, and protect others from the things that she experienced.
