Sexual harassment in the military

Sexual harassment is when someone in the military does or says something that makes another person feel uncomfortable or embarrassed in a sexual way. It can happen in different forms, such as unwanted touching, inappropriate comments, or showing sexual pictures. Just like when someone takes your toy without your permission and you feel upset, sexual harassment can make soldiers feel angry, scared or sad.

The military has rules against sexual harassment because it's not fair to treat people badly because of their gender or sexuality. It's also dangerous because it can hurt a soldier's performance and cause them to lose focus. So if someone is sexually harassed, they should report it to their commander or someone higher in rank, so they can investigate and prevent it from happening again.
