The same way I would treat a female.

Step 1: warn them that if they talk to me, it will be an unrestricted report, and it will be referred to OSI for criminal investigation of the person they accuse.

Step 2: If they want it to be a restricted report, I would take them to the SARC or the chaplain.

Step 2a: If they still want to report it to me, I'm still going to involve the SARC, but also my commander and OSI.

True enough. I'm not the expert, but I know that both the SARC and chaplain are experts who can take a restricted report. They'd be my first call, and then they can make the assessment about medical professionals.

In all honestly, how/why is/should it any different?

They should be treated exactly the same as a female victim.
