From Oscar and Emmy-nominated filmmaker Kirby Dick (This Film Is Not Yet Rated; Twist of Faith) comes THE INVISIBLE WAR, a groundbreaking investigative documentary about one of America's most shameful and best-kept secrets - the epidemic of rape within the U.S. military. The film paints a startling picture of the extent of the problem - today, a female soldier in combat zones is more likely to be raped by a fellow soldier than killed by enemy fire. Twenty percent of all active-duty female servicewomen are sexually assaulted. Profoundly moving, the film follows the stories of several idealistic young servicewomen who were raped and then betrayed by their own officers when they courageously came forward to report. Both a rallying cry for the hundreds of thousands of men and women who've been assaulted and a hopeful road map for change, THE INVISIBLE WAR is one of those rare films so powerful it has already helped change military policy.

This is a complete utter load of trash and they should be sued for libel.I couldnt make it beyond the written summary..20% of all military females? Clearly the creator as not spent a second in any branch of service.. One thing was correct, Women indeed are more likely to be raped in a combat zone than to be killed by enemy fire,which means Zero%.. G.I Jane isnt real folks. Living on a Fob with Coffee Bean, Burger King and a PX. where the bulk of females would be is a safe as a padded room

HOW TRAGIC AND PREVENTABLE! I'm a Vietnam era veteran and we NEVER had this problem! Why? We kept women separated! Which is why women have NO BUSINESS BEING IN COMBAT! WAKE UP STUPID FEMINISTS! YOU DON'T PUT YOUNG FAWNS IN A CAGE FILLED WITH HUNGRY LIONS!

Found "The Invisible War" last night in my local library. I've learned about some of these heartbreaking issues from someone who has "been there done that" and yet more from this movie. The military should treat these rapists like the civilian courts would. Unfortunately I've been there, for other reasons but those rippers would finally get a little "what goes around comes around". I wish you all luck and am glad you have VetWow to help.
