City of Dundee INTRODUCTION It is unlikely that Judge Vance intended to be prophetic about the Navy when he spoke these words in 1982. Unfortunately, at the Tailhook sympo- sium in October 1991, Navy women were forced to run just such a gauntlet. Navy and Marine Corps aviators used what they called a gauntlet to systematically sexually assault at least 26 women, over half of whom were female Navy officers.

One reason for the pervasiveness of sexual assault is the reporting structure. Despite changes in the way sexual assault complaints are handled, there continue to be numerous sexual assault scandals (Childress, 2013). The purpose of this study is to examine how the military’s chain of command influences the reporting procedures, and how this may influence the military’s ability to prevent sexual assaults. This thesis examines three case studies specifically focusing on military sexual assault reporting. Keywords: military sexual assault, military chain of command, Tailhook Scandal, Aberdeen, U.S.

WILLS has been approved for the Department of History and the College of Arts and Sciences by Ingo Trauschweizer Associate Professor of History Robert Frank Dean, College of Arts and Sciences 3 ABSTRACT WILLS, STEVEN T., Ph.D., April 2017, History Replacing the Maritime Strategy: The Change in Naval Strategy from 1989-1994 Director of Dissertation: Ingo Trauschweizer The change in U.S. naval strategy from 1989 to 1994 was the most significant of its kind since the end of the Second World War. The end of the Cold War, the provisions of the Goldwater Nichols Act of 1986 and the effects of the First Gulf War of 1991 combined to radically alter U.S. and naval strategic thinking. The end of the Cold War brought about a review of U.S. naval strategy, but the personalities involved created a new process that greatly hampered the re-creation of strategy designed to combat peer competitors. The provisions of the Goldwater Nichols Act of 1986 indirectly affected the Navy staff where strategy documents had heretofore been produced. Talented officers that had sought service on the Navy Staff gravitated instead toward the Joint Staff and regional Commander Staffs as these positions offered better chances for promotion and advancement.
