SAN DIEGO — A former Navy sailor from San Diego told 10News that he suffered abuse at the hands of fellow serviceman because he is gay.
Joseph Rocha first joined the Navy after the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks in search of a way to help protect his country.
However, Rocha said what he found was a daily dose of hazing and abuse.
Rocha is now a student at the University of San Diego, but he said his first semester has not been easy.
“It’s difficult to concentrate in class,” said Rocha.
Rocha was diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder and depression after several years as a dog handler at a base in Bahrain.
Rocha said his ordeal began when other sailors pressured him to sleep with prostitutes. He refused, and that prompted questions.
