Anything that fractures the military like it has fractured civillians will ultimately bring us toward the end game.
Interestingly enough, there have been gays in the military since I enlisted in 1982, and there were still gays in the military when I retired in 2002.
During my career, one of the jobs I had to do every 6 months was calculate worksheets for the people in the command that were eligible for the advancement exam, which included their time in service, length of service, time in paygrade, as well as add up all their personal awards and average their evaluations for that period.
I also knew who was and wasn't gay in just about every command I was attached to, because people trusted me and knew I wouldn't tell on them.
Know what I found out from that? Gays generally had better evaluations and more personal awards than their straight counterparts.
Katz..........quick question.............did YOU ever serve in the military? If so, how many gay people did you know.
Try again..........your premise is seriously screwed up. I know this from experience.
