Unrestricted Report of sexual assault made by or against a member of 
the Armed Force. Records may also be used as a management tool for 
statistical analysis, tracking, reporting, evaluating program 
effectiveness, conducting research, and case and business management.

accountability that enhances the safety and well-being of all persons 
covered by the regulation.
