I was watching the news, and I smiled. There is finally some progress regarding the repeal of the "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy that is still enforced in the U.S. military. The Pentagon sent a 100+ questionaire to 400,000 servicemen/women, just to get a feel for what the troops want. There is some speculation from Gay Rights activitists; they believe that some answers are fishing for a coming-out statement, which could be used to discharge a serviceman/woman.
Here is the article I found after Google-ing the topic.
If you hadn't known, I am gay, but I am also in the U.S. Army. I've opened only to a select few people [for obvious reasons]. I'm confident the DADT policy will be repealed eventually, but researchers are expecting its removal as early as 2011, which would be amazing.
I'm so sick of lying about myself, so this is great news to me. Ironic too, since, as I've stated in other threads, I leave for boot camp tomorrow morning.
