I'm for this as long as we're not singled out for suicide missions.

This would be a huge step forward if it happens. Unfortunately, Carter is giving our enemies about six months to figure out how to stop this.

This is a step forward, but even if they lifted the ban, there are a LOT of things to be figured out

Skimmed the headline on the news today. My first thought was, "Oh god no. That could put a lot of people in danger."

Well ya were in the military. People WILL come around. Every person i told to a T didn't care or was extremely happy i told them. Even my super christian roommate was just like so. Most of all the reactions were like "I just thought you were kinda gay but I saw you with women sooooooo. "(Witch i then say i am gay cause i like women and i am one lol).Thats how it was for me but I don't know how it will be for others.

I really hope this goes through.  Where was this 15 years ago.
