re: #21 Gus 802

Somehow, I still doubt that a gay Marine will be making it a point to tell everyone about his sexual orientation even after this repeal. Although he, or she, will be able to continue serving without fear of being discharged.

I think when it comes to soldiers getting support from their families and friends, especially in wartime, it’s going to make a huge difference. Carrying pictures of loved ones, letters from home, etc. And for gay soldiers not to be a part of that, or not letting others be aware of it was a horrible thing.
