April is the Navy's Sexual Assault Awareness Month

Wouldn't this be a good month to get Limbaugh off of the Armed Forces Network? Would be an excellent way to demonstrate the "values and commitments we maintain all year", as stated in the SECNAV's message to the Fleet.

From the SECNAV:

1. THE DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY RECOGNIZES APRIL AS SEXUAL ASSAULT AWARENESS MONTH AS AN ANNUAL REMINDER OF THE VALUES AND COMMITMENTS WE MAINTAIN ALL YEAR. LAST MONTH, WE RENEWED OUR COMMITMENT TO SEXUAL ASSAULT PREVENTION WHEN WE LAUNCHED OUR 21ST CENTURY SAILOR AND MARNIE CORPS INITIATIVE.

2. IT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF EVERY SAILOR, MARINE AND LEADER TO PROTECT ONE OTHER FROM SEXUAL ASSAULT. WE MUST TAKE ALL ALLEGATIONS OF SEXUAL ASSAULT SERIOUSLY, INSIST ON THOROUGH INVESTIGATIONS AND ENSURE VICTIMS ARE SAFE FROM RETALIATION OR RE-VICTIMIZATION.
