Army Rape

Officials at the Army's Aberdeen Proving Ground say they are searching for any other offenders in the sex scandal at the training installation. So far three male trainers, including two drill instructors have been charged with rape and sexual harassment of more than a dozen Army women. The base commander also says he's reiterating a "buddy system" policy, under which each recruit has a partner to keep watch over him or her at all times. NPR's Phillip Davis reports.
