Some people don't realize the hard work of others. Some people will never see things from another's point o view and lastly, why the hell are any of the Armed Forces spending money on making different uniforms!? If females and male wear the same combat uniforms and boot ect what's the difference with blues. Marine, Navy, Army all of them, the females look like shit compared to the males. I never cared before because it didn't apply to me given th fact I'm a male but having fought next to some amazing women with the same complaint I realized that if it were me I would have the same complaint. To stand with your head high, in a hard earned uniform makes my day sometimes. I feel for ya girls.

For myself, I've heard far too many of my fellow officers running around "trash talking" gay people to be comfortable outing myself. I think about it and immediately get a visual of my career going up in smoke. I wonder if many will come out at all in the next few years.

Mon, 27 Dec 2010 16:07:19 +0000 http://akinoluna.com/?p=4859#comment-9441 I couldn't agree more. When I served in the Army, those who were extreme homophobic were usually the asshat, blowhard guys who you couldn't trust and who were substandard soldiers to begin with. They were usually overcompensating for their own weaknesses and insecurities. Some were probably freaked out about their own sexuality and closeted gays themselves. To those numbskulls I say good riddince leave the service, its better off without you!!! I couldn’t agree more.

There will surely be some serious issues that arise, but unless one is comfortable with having a subclass of citizen in our Republic, based on nothing more than sexual orientation...this was the right course of action.

I dread watching John getting killed, and its hard not to feel the hurt that Lena must have felt. The Japs were here in Malaysia too and we have our fair share of stories, but what Sergeant Basilone went through, God its hard to imagine, comprehend and understand..GodBless the both of them, Semper Fi and GodBless the Marine Corps.
