military whistleblower protection

Military whistleblower protection refers to laws and policies that safeguard service members who report misconduct, illegal activities, or safety violations within the military. These protections are designed to prevent retaliation against whistleblowers, such as demotion, discharge, or harassment. Under the Whistleblower Protection Act and other regulations, military personnel are encouraged to report concerns without fear of negative consequences, ensuring accountability and integrity within the armed forces. This framework is crucial for maintaining a transparent and ethical military environment.
