SFC Ollie
Still Marching
Well I imposed the view that I didn't want any of my troops to die in combat.
The military is not anything like civilian life. There are many many rules and regulations that if they were imposed upon civilians there would be an armed uprising. DADT is one of thousands such regulations. And it needs to be left alone. It works, it allows gays who want to serve to do so without jeopardizing themselves or others.
And gays have as much right to talk about banging a girl as anyone else does. Which type of talk is frowned upon in todays military. Never know when one of the female troops can overhear. And yes they do complain about it.
So many think it will be so easy, just repeal it and write a new regulation. You haven't a clue.
