Teal with a purpose…Service before self has been the guiding principle for Hospital Corpsman 2nd Class Crystal Munns during her 10 years in Navy Medicine. Her heightened standard of providing care to those in need extends well beyond daily responsibilities to the crucial collateral duty as a victim advocate for sexual assault sufferers. “I decided to become a victim advocate because I wanted to be there for those individuals who do go through a hard situation and letting them know they are not alone. We are there to help them whenever needed to get back on their feet and show support,” said Munns, currently assigned to Naval Hospital Bremerton Pediatric Clinic as leading petty officer. With April designated by the Department of Defense as Sexual Assault Awareness and Prevention Month, victim advocates such as Munns take on an active role in the Navy’s third largest fleet concentration as part of the command’s Sexual Assault Prevention and Response team (official Navy photo by Douglas H Stutz, NHB/NMRTC Bremerton public affairs officer).
