Lieutenant Colonel Rebecca Macklin encouraged Female Soldiers to Report Rapes to the civilian police, instead of the military chain of command. This move is in response to reports of sexual assault in the military that have been documented in recent years. The military has acknowledged that it has not done enough to address these issues, and Lt. Col. Macklin has stated that the chain of command will no longer be involved in complaints regarding sexual assault.
