9. Thanks for adding that and
I think we should assume that our military personnel are not so petty as to complain about stupid little incidents. Women with skin that thin are unlikely to join the military, much less make it through basic. I think there is a strong institutional memory that does not look kindly on whiners; and spurious claims would be most unlikely under battle conditions.

What amazes me is that so many men in uniform would jeopardize their own lives and those of their comrades with this kind of behavior--that leads me to believe that they have no instruction on self-discipline in this area, that the military condones it by not addressing it in stronger terms.
