The scale of abuse revealed in a report in to the Irish Defence Forces is "just the tip of the Iceberg" according to a former midlands soldier.
The Independent Review Group on Dignity and Equality Issues in the Defence Forces refers to instances of misogyny, discrimination, harassment and sexual misconduct.
Mullingar Security and Defence Analyst Declan Power believes the Irish military has existed in a bubble for too long.
He says abuse is common-place:
