The number of soldiers and sailors appearing on sex offence charges at a military court has risen by 70 per cent – as top brass seek to stamp out abuse.
Cases have included sickening abuse of vulnerable women in the services, often by male personnel in positions of authority.
The trials took place at Bulford military court in Wiltshire which handles sex offences committed in the Army and the Royal Navy.
