And then as a veteran, I thought I could write about all the sexual harassment allegations occurring in the Army. However, to me it is pretty simple. Yes, it happens in the military, but it also happens in the civilian world. It is solved as best as it can be by enforcement or as the powers-that-be say, zero tolerance. The thing that really burns me about all of this, are those who are calling for the Army to re-examine coed training. Of all the stories I've read, the problem is not with male Private (grunt) Jones making advances towards female Private Smith during basic training. The problem is with Colonel Jones using his or her power over Captain or Sergeant Smith. Certainly, there are many things happening overseas. The constant ' instability of the Middle East, heightened by the killing of Israeli school children, the anarchy in Albania and the turmoil in Zaire. I know these subjects are better left to the experts. In retrospect, maybe I should have written about March Madness. THE CHANTICLEER MARCH 20,1997 PAGE 5
