Our Combat troops are about to get trained in gay sensitivity. And it appears that this isn't something that can wait until they rotate back to the comforts of home. They will be receiving this training in the field.
You have to understand what exactly these men are being prepared for.
When I was in the Marine Corps in the early '80s there were gay men in the Military then as there are now. Don't ask, don't tell was in full swing, but we knew some of those serving with us were gay. While they were gay, they joined the Marine Corps for the same reason I did. They knew they would be required to keep their personal life to themselves and they joined anyway, because they are proud Americans and felt a need to serve their Country.
What our Military is going to be prepared for isn't that type of gay man. They are going to be prepared for those who are joining because they have been denied. They are going to be prepared for the guys you see in the gay pride parades with assless chaps and feather boas. These men will not join because they are proud Americans and feel a need to serve their Country. They will join because now they haven't been able to in the past.
What do you think this is going to do to our Military? Initially it will affect morale. Eventually it will lead to a drop in enlistment and finally it will lead to the end of our Military as we know it.
I fear for the future of our Country...
