Synopsis

Each year in the U.S. Military, tens of thousands of soldiers are sexually assaulted by brothers in arms. Most keep assaults quiet, fearing retaliation and mistrusting the military justice system. Victims are often forced to resign and perpetrators rarely brought to justice. An Enemy Within shares the intimate stories of victims who recount the impacts the rape and denial of justice had on their lives.
