Is The Generals Daughter movie a true story.?
The General's Daughter, based on the novel of the same title by Nelson DeMille which in turn is constructed from a true story. The Ask.com screen continues on by saying that it was a true story based upon the Tailhook scandal where aviators raped women and senior officials attempted to cover their behavior up. The info about the story being based on the Nelson DeMille novel is true as far as I can discover. The novel may even be vaguely based upon the Tailhook scandal, but there were *absolutely no rapes* in the Tailhook scandal. The truth of the matter is much more mundane. Paula Coughlin, the woman who blew the cover on the incident was not raped; she was manhandled as she walked down a hotel passageway filled with junior aviators. As she, too, was an aviator and felt this was highly insulting behavior, she reported it. When nothing happened, she went to the press. I do not excuse the aviators for their brutish, idiot and lewd behavior, but report the facts as they happened. Again I say, no one was raped. Professionals were manhandled inappropriately and later attempts were made to cover up the incident, which some call the real scandal, but no woman was raped. Though I was not in the military at the time, I worked for a military command as a civilian and one of my supervisors was an aviator who attended the Tailhook convention. This whole thing was the talk of the town for a number of months. A number of reforms were instituted because of the Tailhook scandal ("Tailhook" refers to the hook that is used in landing an aircraft on an aircraft carrier), which was a good thing in the end, but I say for the third time, there were no rapes at the 1991 Tailhook convention. I encourage all to read the Wikipedia article, which is fairly accurate and extensive, regarding the Tailhook scandal, for the truth.
