Two women, who are identified only by pseudonyms to protect their identities, allege serious sexual violence and abuse at a teen army college in the United Kingdom. In their accounts, the women say they applied to train for a soldier’s career and had long aspired to join the military. They then describe being assaulted by fellow soldiers/cadets while at the academy. One woman, “Tilly,” alleges she was raped by multiple fellow soldiers for “several hours,” describing the attack as lasting throughout that period. Another account similarly depicts her experience as involving rape and abuse, with allegations also including sexual harassment and voyeurism at the college.
The reporting describes the allegations as made by the women and does not indicate outcomes of any investigation or formal charges. The accounts focus on the women’s claims that misconduct occurred within the academy and that it left them distressed and disillusioned with their training ambitions. Any response from the college or authorities is not included in the provided excerpts.
