Well, you know, we're talking about during the Korean War.
Come on, who's going to believe a woman?
They're going to say, "Well, what did you do to entice him?"
I know what they'd say,
and no, that's why I never went to anyone.
I kept it inside for a long time
until I finally talked to that psychologist here,
in San Diego, I think her office is down in the Valley.
And she was really nice.
I trusted her, I believed in her, and I think that's when part of
the pain started going away.
Because I felt like the Air Force was the best thing
that ever happened to me,
until that happened, and that was the worst.
But I wasn't going to go to someone and squeal on him
because they wouldn't believe me.
I knew they wouldn't.
How many women do you know in the Air Force
back during the Korean era that...
I don't know, they told me that's
why they let me join the military, was to take care of them.
I sure didn't know that.
I'd have never went in the military.
I can get that kind of harassment on the outside.
I went in the military to get away from that,
thinking I'd be protected, but I wasn't.
