It’s across the military. I was assaulted 4 different times by 4 different service members while I was in the Marine Corps and I requested to leave my unit (2 of them were in my unit) and my CO looks me dead in the eyes and says “im not giving you a vacation of an enlistment; you can go down the road” and my therapist goes “why don’t you just get over it” then they tried to kick me out for Failure to Adapt which would ruin me because it’s an administrative separation and therefore not an honorable discharge

[@bbyxadri]

It's very very bad up there at Fort Hood. I lived there for 10+ years- just a few years ago there was a prostitution ring sting that took down a LOT of military higher ups who were involved. It's disgusting, actually.

[@trohan_11]

I was in the same battalion as her (Regimental Engineer Squadron in 3CR) and the whole ordeal is a big reason why I decided to get out. I was out there in the field searching for her the day it was reported she went missing, and I'll tell you now, there was a SFC about 3 or 4 days into the search telling us we need to start looking for a body instead of signs of life. I can't even describe the smell down in the arms rooms. They knew it was Robinson the whole time, and CID dropped the ball big time. Nobody can convince me otherwise. Also, Robinson was a huge POS who shouldn't have been in the military to begin with, much less an armorer. I didn't know Vanessa too well, but I remember her as always smiling before we went to NTC in October 2019. After that, she always looked sad or at the very least unhappy. It's extremely sad that she won't get the full justice she deserves. And no, Fort Hood, your overcorrection of "Operation People First" is not working in practice at all; it did for about 2 weeks then things went back to normal.

[@josephleigh7841]

Damn bro. I remember always seeing NCOs practically praying on drunk lower enlisted females at company/barracks parties. Female, male whatever you should be able to trust the person wearing the same uniform as you to watch your back. This incident left a sick taste in mouth for the army and made me rethink about my time in because I was IAR when this happened. Protect the people you serve with folks.

I was stationed at Hood 06 to 09 and this place was beyond wild, we had soldiers murdered in Killeen,drugs, domestic abuse,awols, suicides, rapes, and abuse of power just to name a few. The public doesn't know what we had to deal with because the Army and all other branches police themselves. We once had to search for a missing young sergeant from Wednesday to Saturday on a land navigation course only to find him 300 meters from our rally point, to this day I honestly believe he was murdered and his body was dumped.

[@pasaniusventris4113]

I was in the Navy for six years. It destroyed my mental health and my body. During my first three years, stationed on a ship, we had a suicide once a year, and I remember vividly when a guy attempted by leaping over the side. My dear friend got sexually assaulted, and people told her not to “ruin his career” over “a mistake.” My friend in the marines was sexually assaulted at least three times as well. Everyone is sleep deprived, sometimes to the point where they fall asleep standing up WHILE STEERING THE SHIP. Sleep deprivation is a form of torture, yet so common that everyone just shrugs and says “yeah, I’m tired too. It sucks.” But leadership does nothing. The next three years I was ashore the depression and hopelessness was so bad I was sobbing my eyes out every day after work. I am out, but not without scars. I’m disabled and traumatized, and unfortunately, none of this story surprises me. I wish people would be more open about what it’s really like, and how rampant both sexual assault and misconduct is. Did you know that an officer can just dismiss sexual assault allegations? They can just decide to end the investigation. It’s no wonder that people don’t report.

Considering also how young they are as well. It's as if they want a small, weak army the way they're treated. Look at how veterans are treated! It's disgusting and I don't think most kids understand what it is really all about. That alone is a horror they have to live with but on top of that they're treated like crap. Extremely disappointed in the governments and extremely disappointed in people who don't actively fight on behalf of the troops. The "leaders" smh. Our leaders don't give AF about any of us. The sooner people realize this then we might have a chance. Disgraceful.

[@gummycats]

the us military has never given a shit about its veterans or its families. i'm staunchly anti military/war/imperialism, but i also grew up as a military brat, and saw how little they cared for my sick father while my mom and i watched him waste away from agent orange induced diseases. couldn't help us because "he never had boots on the ground", they said. took the better part of a decade for them to finally give us what we deserved, but only well after he had passed. it disgusts me the methods they take to recruit people, promising good pay and scholarships and an escape from student debt. it's so appetizing to so many that it's hard to see the real motives behind their offers, which is just to get more fodder for more forever wars and more money to expand our already ridiculous weapons arsenal. don't fall for it.

[@amyb7823]

@@kkittycatkat1990 I'm highly disappointed too. I'm glad to have read another comment like this because I feel the same. This is all around disappointing to hear and our soldiers deserve better than this. I was also saddened to hear that women get treated so poorly. Even tho I do realize some men may not be the biggest supporters of women in military or in combat or whatever, I would expect ALL men in the military to be decent men who don't sexually assault or harass women or worse. That was honestly disappointing to hear. I'm personally someone who leans more conservatively and have great respect and support for troops however this made me very sad to hear. I do know this isn't all men in the military so I keep that in mind too. I just wish it was more seriously frowned upon within the military. But this nonsense about soldiers not getting medical proper care, not getting time off for death in family, not being respected is absolutely ridiculous and should never happen. Especially hearing about these men that put their lives on the line for our country, then when they struggle and need help, the military abandons them. Such a shame and a great disappointment to hear as an American honestly.

[@TheHispanicmaid]

Having been stationed there for 8 months I didn’t know this girl but I knew of her, I can tell you that it’s not surprising at all she was sexually harassed by higher ranking officials, I’ve seen things in that place that you’d only imagine could happen. Sexual harassment is pretty much a normal thing in that base, Almost encouraged by higher ranking officials even suicide is pretty common place as well as depression, I had a home girl who was super excited when she first arrived and not even a month later she would ask me to walk with her to her post as she felt uncomfortable by some of the people she was around, and after 6 months they were carrying her in a body bag after she was sexually assaulted by an officer and she ended her own life. What makes things worse they never revealed the officers name or rank they simply transferred him to another station because apparently “it would bring down our military integrity to out a fellow service man.” So I got out and my lil sister wanted to join but I made sure to tell her otherwise.

Everyday a person in the military is on the news for R word murder stealing abusing animals n kids smdh no different than a cilivan & just like any other cult gang church or organization they cover up abuse because they are the top abusers!

Then, a ranked official put in charge of reducing the rate of sex harassment and assault took advantage of vulnerable female soldiers while running a prostitution ring. Ironic doesn’t begin to describe this bs. Tks for doing this story. Ive heard/watched several different stories about Vanessa but all of those combined didn’t reveal half of the info you did. Horrific situation but excellently put together.

[@luminvader8911]

Ugh exactly. So many times the people in charge of protecting others end up being guilty of the things that "claim" to be against. Can't even explain all the cases ex: where the police officer responsible for taking Josh duggar's sexual assault of his sisters... ended up being busted for CP and then years later he was also busted for CP. So many judges that are responsible for convicted sex crimes end up being in charge of prostitution or child sex rings. That's why I'm skeptical of everyone honestly. You never know. Hurts my heart that victims come forward thinking they might do something and then end up being the very people who offend those crimes.

You couldn’t talk to anyone about how you felt or if you feel suicidal because no one really gave a rats a$$. They may give you some lame “counseling” because that’s what they’re supposed to do but never actually tried to get to the root cause. It wasn’t until I got out and went to a mental health counselor at the VA where I was diagnosed with anxiety and depression and put on proper medication.

Our unit had back to back suicides and a few DUI related fatalities in the same month. Unfortunately this was a regular thing in our unit and I can tell you if you did attempt to get mental health help, you were labeled as a bad soldier and you can kiss your career goodbye. Leadership only cares about themselves and their own people and 9/10 times you aren't anything but a moving piece in their careers. The corruption and blatant negligence is obvious to anyone who has ever served, especially in Infantry Commands. The army does not care about you and only considers you a number on a roster.

It’s tough to portray exactly how bad it is inside Fort Hood without you being able to see it first hand. I’ve seen some pretty bad people here, people who have too much power and are able to affect your career no questions asked unless you do exactly what they demand. I feel so very sorry for Vanessa’s family, but I am very glad that they didn’t just accept the armys usual answer of “they went awol”. They went above and beyond, even got the president involved and got Fort Hood under the light! It’s too bad that things are going back to the way they were before

@@goliathtigerfishes well for awhile yes, all the higher ups were scared Shitless and didn’t want to get relieved from duty so for like a year or so things were going good. Then just like that everything calmed down and it went straight to toxicity and favoritism all over again. I got discharged because I didn’t have the correct paperwork to show for my adhd and when I tested positive for adderall I requested to be seen by a neuropsychologist to be evaluated to show proof that I was not misusing prescribed drugs. But they would not allow me to prove my case and I received a General Under Honorable discharge. Which I am currently fighting with supporting documents as of today to prove my innocence. But I say that because it goes to show that at least in Fort Hood they do not care about your well-being, your innocence, or family. I promise you that place will kill any and all morale that any soldier who gets stationed there has. There’s so much that goes on there that truthfully I don’t even feel safe talking about.

One of the saddest parts of this is that they found a few other dead soldiers during the search for Vanessa. To this day, there's still no publicity about them, and no closure. Nobody gave a shit about them, because they were male soldiers, and they were just assumed to be AWOL.

The only reason anyone cared about Vanessa was from her family being continuously vocal. She would have been just like those men.

Remember Vanessa was latina, they rarely get media attention with this kind of stuff.

Greg. He's been in local news since right after he vanished which was Aug 19 of 2019. He was found during the time everyone was searching for Vanessa yes but he was found in the Florence Rd field after the anonymous tip was called in to Ft Hood CID telling them that location. It's often over 200 soldiers that get declared AWOL in a given year and the majority aren't in the media once. There's been publicity for Greg I know some of the Guillen family talks to Mama Kim Wedel still. It's been over 160 non combat deaths of Ft Hood soldiers we've closely tracked from Jan 2016 to the present, it's certainly a greater issue than the majority of the public knows I agree that needs to change. I said it's been 160+ non combat deaths for Ft Hood soldiers I've tracked just since 2016, so by comparison we lost about 70 Ft Hood soldiers in COMBAT deaths in Afghanistan at the seventeen years anniversary of the start of the war there.

Ft. Hood could be the title of a horror novel. Murder, sexual harassment, prostitution and incompetence and cover ups from the highest levels of the base. And the status quo still exists at the Army base.

[@oldmandoinghighkicksonlyin1368]

Newsflash: the American military is so gargantuan that the right hand doesn't know what the left hand is doing. The bureaucracy, the secrecy and invulnerability of the higher ups, the incompetency at all levels, the low social status of the common rank and file... It's a perfect storm of every American cultural problem rolled into a small footprint. Joining the US military is one rung up from going to jail and being a career criminal. The enlisted ranks are filled with low-IQ sociopaths, the junior officers are fresh-faced, young, recent graduates with zero wisdom or life experience (let alone any life experience that matches their subordinates), and the brass is a jaded group of cover-up artists who only care about protecting their own careers. The US military is a government onto itself, filled with incompetence, large institutional waste and ineffeciency that is mostly concerned with adhering to the framework of rules that do not fit any nuanced situation. It's a large ship with too many captains -- it cannot be steered to make nimble maneuvers with finesse and grace however it's quite good at rolling over docks and then surveying the damage as it floats on by leaving a nice trail of debris that eventually fades into the horizon.

I was stationed in FH for 3 years. When your leadership is good, it makes you feel secure and that they actually care. But when they rotate out completely new leadership, which they do to stop the chances of well established inappropriate relationships from forming, that creates the chances of getting awful leadership, which is what made me not re-up and I felt like I had to get the heck out of there. There are people in positions of power who do not belong there, ranging from sheer incompetence, to people who genuinely don't care about the men and women they are in charge of.

PTSD really does change you. If not your behaviour, your thoughts. Though in my experience it changes everything. Behaviour, thoughts, emotions, physical health, resting BPM, energy levels, reflexes… that’s just off the top of my head. Left untreated it never gets better, and in many cases, it only gets worse. Mental illness ALWAYS has some level of physiological ramifications. If physical health is of any value to them, mental health should be equally prioritized. Like a leg fracture, you can’t “suck it up.” If you think you can, you’ve never been mentally ill. Leaving a leg fracture untreated, sure, it could fix itself. But not without a mangled bone and physical deformity/disability. The same logic applies to mental health.

This story has NOTHING to do with the military. It just so happens that this one particular case was a female soldier murdered by a male soldier, and that's all this channel wants you to focus on, the fact that they were soldiers. The "sex trafficking ring" was just a BLACK pimp exploiting vulnerable women into becoming his prostitutes, and then a BLACK man murdering a woman. This is exactly what non-military America is like, where most pimps are black men and most murderers are black men. War, PTSD, and the Army in general, is completely irrelevant to this case. But this channel tried real hard to make everybody believe that the treatment of soldiers is the common denominator. And sadly it worked, because you're all afraid to pattern-recognize and identify the real problem, whether on military bases or off of them.

I have been in the Marine Corps for 20 years, and would be the first to admin that the Military/Gov is completely inept. However the one time I had a missing Marine (he went UA, drove back home), the base was locked down within an hour and everyone, EVERYONE got online and searched for him. It wasn't until a few hours later when we were able to get in touch with his mother that she admitted he was home. Same thing with a loss of serialized gear, like a pistol....base locked down, everyone gets online and looks. At the very least, anyone involved or anyone who knows something will eventually crack and start talking.

I sometimes wonder if the Marine Corps has a different brotherhood than all other military branches. I mean no disrespect to anyone, I say this because my brother was a marine. And when he passed away from a drug overdose 15 years after he was out of the military, four of his Marine buddies drove three states just to come to his funeral. They had not spoken to him in years or even knew what was going on or how he passed. They seen it on Facebook and wanted to pay their respects. I found it fascinating that they all had not kept in touch either Until this and decided to come together. I was so honored and so touched by that.

I don't blame the Marine Corps itself, but then.... the Corps itself has to share *some* blame. I know it's impossible to weed out soldiers who might be problematic, but I feel like they could at least do a little more. I think the problem is just consistency.

@@LoveLunaFam No, I thik you're onto something. I grew up a military brat, and though I've never served, some of my most valued friends and family have enlisted. There is absolutely a personality type that thrives in the military - it channels energy into a sense of structure that really seems to make a difference in some soldiers' lives. But I think there are some personality types that get twisted by that structure, too. It's a very insular organization, our military, and there is no way a few centuries worth of war and combat and militarization haven't negatively impacted the soldiers who serve in it. We all know how difficult it can be for our enlistees to even see their own PTSD as the mental affliction it is - maybe (some) soldiers have been conditioned to rely upon their comrades and command structure *only* and this can create its own kind of stagnant rot.

This is very true about Ft Hood, it is a black hole. My son was stationed there and he was scheduled to have a major surgery on his eye.

We drove from Mississippi to Ft Hood Tx then took him to Austin, Tx for the surgery. We were there for a week and no one checked in on him. He was given 10 days leaves to recoup, however, the day we left his platoon leader shows up and tells him he missed PT and getting ready to give him a reprimand he called us his parents and this is when we stepped in and made some phone calls. It was unfortunate this is where we had to go, and the sad part about this, the platoon leader was not aware that my son was even having surgery.
