A terrible policy that under mines the confidence and security of American soldiers and sailors. They should be worried about the enemy not about who will cop a feel in the shower or try to blow them in their bunk.
If gays want to serve their country perhaps there could be some defense, service or public works jobs they could do as a group like rehabbing houses or driving trucks with supplies to our bases. That might work. But our troops need to be focussed on job one which is killing the enemy and staying alive and they should not have to worry about some queen staring at them or touching them improperly.
Right, because gays shouldn't have the right to fight for a country that has people in it constantly trying to take away their rights yet despite that, gays still love it enough to want to have the right to risk their lives on the field of battle for it. That's quite damn heroic to have that kind of attitude, anybody who loves their country anywhere as much as some of the secret gay servicemen do damn well deserves to be in the army. The army isn't about orientation or purity, it's about people who love their nation to the point of risking their lives for it, as long as the members of our armed forces have that, they shouldn't be prohibited from active duty in our armed forces.
