FollowUp 1: Pentagon and Pride 2012
This afternoon was formal recognition of Pride Month at the Pentagon. C-SPAN covered the event. Most notable, may I commend to you listening to Department of Defense General Counsel Jeh Johnson, above, where he gives his inside perspective on the process of repeal of Don't Ask, Don't Tell (DADT).
The first person tales of the panel that follows, in the second video, are compelling. Different military and civilian perspectives on LGBTQ service.
If you have a full hour, please enjoy the full video at C-SPAN.
