Taking a stand… Hospital Corpsman 1st Class Joshua Vidito, assigned to Navy Medicine Readiness Training Unit Bangor as leading petty officer, is also a volunteer unit victim advocate for Naval Base Kitsap’s Sexual Assault Prevention and Response program. With April designated as the Navy’s Sexual Assault Awareness and Prevention Month, the theme for 2026, ‘Step Forward. Prevent. Report. Advocate,’ is designed to create an appropriate environment to eliminate sexual assault with a personal commitment from all personnel. Vidito is a testament to that individual obligation. His role as a UVA includes volunteering to be on Naval Base Kitsap Victim Advocate watch bill for any after hour emergency. He also takes a lead in promoting awareness throughout the clinic, such as prominently displaying the sizable teal ribbon as a visual reminder about SAAPM during the month of April. Just the small attention to a detail like that help reinforce the Navy commitment that sexual assault is a crime which erodes a command’s mission readiness (Official Navy photo by Douglas H Stutz, NHB/NMRTC Bremerton public affairs officer)
