The Department of Defense has announced its 2016 Military Investigation and Justice Experience Survey, according to this announcement.
Here's a startling fact: "The 2015 survey found that 77 percent of all respondents would recommend others in the military make a report if they are sexually assaulted." In other words, nearly a quarter of those who responded to last year's survey would not recommend filing a report if sexually assaulted.

In looking at last year's report, I'm wondering if those who recommended against reporting did so because of concerns of retaliation? The report finds that about 38% of the respondents experienced perceived retaliation, ostracism, or maltreatment.
