John McCain: Women Should Avoid Military Service Until Sexual Misconduct Crisis Solved

John McCain: Women should avoid military service until sexual misconduct crisis solved - U.S. News:

"Sen. John McCain, who built a potent political career on his record as a Vietnam veteran and ex-prisoner of war, on Tuesday told the leaders of every military branch he cannot in good conscience advise women to join the service as the military grapples to contain and curb its sexual assault epidemic. 'Just last night, a woman came to me and said her daughter wanted to join the military and could I give my unqualified support for her doing so. I could not,' McCain, an Arizona Republican, said during a Senate Armed Services Committee hearing examining whether all serious sexual crimes should be removed from the chain of command."
