Fort McCoy personnel participate in the Denim Day 2-mile Walk on April 30, 2025, held at the Fort McCoy, Wis., Physical Fitness Training Site where there’s a ½-mile track. More than two dozen people participated in the walk. Denim Day is recognized on a Wednesday in April in honor of Sexual Assault Awareness Month. The campaign began after a ruling by the Italian Supreme Court to overturn a rape conviction because the justices felt that since the victim was wearing tight jeans, she must have helped the person who raped her remove them, thereby implying consent. Following the reversal, the women in the Italian Parliament came to work wearing jeans in solidarity with the victim. (U.S. Army Photo by Scott T. Sturkol/Fort McCoy Public Affairs Office)
