Carol - I'll take a look on Jstor and some other online resources I use for research and see if I can scrap anything up.
And on a side note - folks, you can always ask me for research assistance if you are ever looking for resources, I have access (like others here probably do in education/research) to most major research facilities - from visual art for fair use to countless scholarly publications. And I'm happy to download and email you anything you need (but don't tell "The Man" that I said that!), since it's for research purposes, of course.

This is something that's been on my mental list of articles to write. Someday... "Rape in the U.S. Military"
Just searched rape U.S. military in wikipedia and just a mention of Okinawa, not the horrific statistics. "Crime and U.S. military" (safer article to start with to avoid AfD) showed nothing as well.
Put a note on feminist wikiproject (i'm flustered dealing with crashing computer, new one in mail, and occupying DC, or a day or two anyway, just long enough to convince them --
well, let's not talk politics... but I do have some sexist pig peace activists I'll probably be running into... one of whom has a vanity article on wikipedia... don't get me started...

You'll also notice that Forbe's cites Wikipedia's article about micro-lending!
