Multiple Personnel Suspended, Under Investigation at Fort Sill After Sexual Assault Allegation
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In Oklahoma, an investigation is underway after a soldier at the Fort
Sill Army training base said she was sexually assaulted by 22
servicemembers - sometimes in groups. At least 20 personnel at Fort
Still have been suspended. Speaking to The Intercept, an Army official
referred to the case as "Fort Hood 2.0" - referencing the sexual
harassment and killing last April of 20-year-old soldier Vanessa Guillén
by a fellow servicemember.
