The U.S. military may be facing its worst sex-abuse scandal in years after dozens of female Air Force recruits were allegedly victimized by male boot camp instructors at Lackland Air Force Base in Texas. Twelve male instructors are suspected of violations ranging from rape to improper sexual relations. One male trainer has been charged with raping or sexually assaulting 10 recruits. Nine of the instructors are from the same unit, and their commander has been relieved of duty. So far 31 victims have been identified.
