Rand noted that the top three bases are all undergraduate pilot training bases. However, Rand noted that the average sexual assault risk for women in the Air Force was low, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.airforcetimes.com\/news\/your-military\/2018\/04\/30\/dod-marines-had-highest-increase-in-reports-of-sexual-assaults\/\" target=_blank>as compared to other services<\/a>. And few installations had a total sexual assault risk that was greatly different from the service\u2019s average.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The highest-risk Air Force base for women, Vance AFB near Enid, Oklahoma, had a 5.2 percent risk of sexual assault, higher than the overall average risk of 3.1 percent for Air Force women.<\/p>\n\n\n\t<aside class=\"smg-interstitial-link wp-block-smg-interstitial-link\">\n\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/militarytimes\/news\/your-military\/2018\/09\/21\/sexual-assault-here-are-the-bases-where-troops-are-most-at-risk\/\" class=\"smg-interstitial-link__inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"smg-interstitial-link__media\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"175\" src=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Shoes2.jpg.jpg?w=300\" class=\"smg-interstitial-link__image wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"smg-interstitial-link__content\">\n\t\t\t\t<span class=\"smg-interstitial-link__kicker\">Related<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"smg-interstitial-link__title\">Sexual assault: Here are the bases where troops are most at risk<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"smg-interstitial-link__excerpt\">Navy ships are the most dangerous, according to new Pentagon study ranking installations on risk of assault.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t<\/aside>\n\t\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The top five highest-risk installations for men in the Air Force were, in descending order, Altus, Laughlin, Joint-Base Anacostia-Bolling, Luke and Columbus Air Force bases. All but Bolling are AETC bases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In a statement, AETC pledged to \u201ctake ownership of the issue\u201d of sexual assault and make sure airmen have safe training environments. AETC also said it will use the data in the Rand study to better understand risk factors for sexual assault at the installation level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cAirmen in AETC are our most valuable resource, and our mission cannot succeed when our airmen do not feel safe or experience an egregious crime like sexual assault,\u201d AETC said in an email Friday evening. \u201cWhen the 2014 Rand survey results were made available, AETC took the data seriously and implemented program and training changes at that time. This is a continuous process, however, and AETC is committed to the safety of airmen through evidence-based training, program and policy modification.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">AETC said that since 2014, it and the rest of the Air Force have included primary prevention \u2014 or strategies that are taken before sexual violence has occurred, intended to prevent it from happening at all \u2014 into its violence prevention and response models. And a new program called Getting to Outcomes is intended to tailor prevention efforts that are specific to each installation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And in 2019, AETC will start having all basic military trainees go through an evidence-based sexual assault prevention and response curriculum, the command said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Bolling has not yet responded to a request for comment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Rand estimated that Ramstein Air Base in Germany had 76 women and men in the Air Force who were sexually assaulted in 2014, the highest estimated number of all Air Force installations. Langley Air Force Base in Virginia had 71 estimated sexual assaults, and Hurlburt Field, Florida, had 67 estimated sexual assaults in that same year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Rand, which based its risk estimates on data from fiscal 2014, cautioned that the risk may be different today. The estimates also only apply to active-duty personnel assigned to those installations, and did not consider reserve-component personnel on active duty status, civilians or contractors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In a section on the caveats and limitations of the study, Rand said the report did not uncover why risk may be higher or lower at different installations, and said there may be many possible causes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe differences may result from differences in command climate, alcohol availability and price, crime rates in the surrounding civilian community, or the transitory presence of one or more sexual predators,\u201d the report said. \u201cAlthough the current study cannot identify the causal role of these or other factors, ongoing research may help answer these questions.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The data studied by Rand also excluded service members with fewer than six months of active-duty service, which means about half of the basic Air Force trainees at Lackland Air Force Base were excluded, as well as other services&#8217; basic military training bases. Rand said it cannot assume whether those exclusions would raise or lower the estimated risk of sexual assault at basic training bases like Lackland. The data also does not include cadets at service academies such as the Air Force Academy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Men and women in the Air Force face the greatest risk of
