I simply do not understand the necessity of this. Why do gays feel like they need to be "out" while they're serving in the military? We all make sacrifices when we enlist, why are gays so reticent to do the same? When I was in the service I kept my political opinion about our Commander In Chief a secret. Sure, every now and again I would confide in people of my respective rank, but I certainly didn't feel the entire damned military needed to personally accommodate me and my politics. The same thing should go for homosexuality. Confide in those with whom you feel comfortable but do not act like everyone else must accommodate your lifestyle. It's called making a sacrifice on behalf of your country and your unit. My solution? Get a straw and suck it up.
