speier, for five minutes. ms. speier: thank you, madam speaker. for a number of months now i've come to the floor to tell the stories of men and women in the military who have been raped by other soldiers. as heinous as those assaults are, the greatest injustice is suffered after the assault, when victims are doubted, disrespected and discharged from the military that they have so proudly enlisted in. last night i had a long conversation with an army and navy veteran, terri odom, who told me she dreamed to serve in the military since she was a little girl. she was so determined that between her junior and senior summer she went to boot camp, not to some playground area somewhere in her area but to boot camp. after high school she went to sicily with the c.b.'s. she told me she had never been happier serving her country, seeing the world, even swimming in the mediterranean. it was like terri was living a military recruiting commercial. while there she was befriended by an n.s.o. 25 years her senior. she was a father figure to terri and she trusted
