Pentagon: Use of Surveillance Planes in Protests Was Legal
WASHINGTON - The use of National Guard reconnaissance planes in four U.S. cities to monitor the widespread protests earlier this year didn't violate rules against the military collecting intelligence on Americans, a Pentagon report has concluded. The investigation by the Air Force inspector general found that the planes were used to gather information about crowd size, crowd flows and fires but they did not monitor individuals. The probe was ordered by Defense Secretary Mark Esper in response to questions within the department and Congress about whether the military illegally conducted surveillance of American citizens during the unrest after the death of George Floyd. The flights in late May and early June came as President Donald Trump was calling for tougher measures to quell the widespread unrest.

Service members sexually harassed more likely to be sexually assaulted: Pentagon study
Service members who are sexually harassed in the military are more likely to become sexually assaulted, according to a new study commissioned by the Defense Department (DOD). The study, released on Tuesday and conducted by Rand Corp ., found that sexual harassment and sexual assault in the military are “strongly linked,” with female service members who experienced sexual harassment 14 times more likely to indicate that they were also sexually assaulted. The odds were even worse for male service members. The study found that men who were sexually harassed in the past year were almost 50 times more likely to have been sexually assaulted in the same time period compared to those who had not recently experienced sexual harassment.
