- Throughout the existence of the Canadian Armed Forces children have resided on the bases in housing provided by the Department of National Defence;
- Just as in civilian society, these children were sometimes subjected to sexual abuse; and
- This sexual abuse was often committed by persons subject to the Code of Service Discipline, the military disciplinary system would often claim jurisdiction.
