Sexual assaults haunt victims after military discharge

The price of war: At 22, Natalie Longee is already a veteran in the war on terror. She has guarded prisoners at Guantanamo Bay and escorted truck convoys in Iraq. She has heard the bombs, survived ambushes and seen the cost of war first hand. And she is traumatized. But it's not the war that has her most rattled. It is the fear than she will be raped again. Six months since her military discharge, Longee joins the ranks of veterans seeking help from the trauma of sexual assaults perpetrated by fellow soldiers. "I am not just scared of bombs," Longee said. "I'm scared people are going to come in. I am scared of rape happening again."
