Praise: Military Six Months After DADT
U.S. Army Sgt. 1st Class John Ebron, Senior Chaplain NCO, 5th Signal Command, Wiesbaden Army Airfield, Germany, and U.S. Air Force Staff Sgt. Ashley Carothers, Supply Point Monitor, 52nd Fighter Wing, Spangdahlem Air Base, Germany, talk about what life was like as gay servicemembers before the repeal of the "don't ask, don't tell" policy and how life has changed for them in the six months after the repeal.
From the Stars and Stripes. Thank you to the United States military for successfully transitioning to open service of lesbian and gay service members. I expected it would go well, so I am not surprised. Those who seek to reinstate Don't Ask, Don't Tell should be shunned.
