A lesbian wife of a Fort Bragg soldier was named the installation's military spouse of the year through a voting competition.
Ashley Broadway is not recognized as a spouse under federal law, and she recently was denied official membership in a Fort Bragg officers' spouses organization. But her selection in the competition by Military Spouse magazine was praised by advocates for gays and lesbians, who say it underscores the need for the federal government to extend full benefits to same-sex couples.
Broadway, the wife of Lt. Col. Heather Mack of Fort Bragg's 1st Theater Sustainment Command, will represent Fort Bragg in the

Social engineering of our fighting men into oblivion. Disgusting. I’m surprised that anyone would want to enlist in the Army unless they’re a homosexual.
Look at how fast they takeover.
Your right. I wonder if a new enlistee tells his commander that he doesn’t want to share a room with someone is gay would face punishment for in tolerance / hate speech.
Like the boy scouts these are american foundational institutions that are being targetted and destroyed by our politicians and the company they keep. If this were the 1700 we would have run out of tar and feathers by now but we will be judged by what we do not do and so far we have done nothing!
I wonder if this is happening in our police forces around the country? It’s happening everywhere else.
Sounds to me like the voting got ——what is the word for Freeped when it isn’t freepers.
It must have been a loaded election.
I would think that the sacrifice of a married couple to raise a family and to be betrothed for life would be the point of being a spouse. Not sexual promiscuity.
But perhaps the Politically correct are a bit to thin upstairs to understand such things.
Why would a soldier marry a lesbian? For a yellow card? /s
Does anyone think she would have made it as the
wife of a Lt.jg.
Wives have ranks too, you better believe it.
God’s Judgement is at hand and by the time these next four years are over with, the U.S will move be severely facing God’s punishment as more people turn away and rebuke him. That is of course judgement doesn’t start before then. We can only hope.
How do they determine which partner is the wife and which is the husband. What if next week the partner that was named “Wife of the Year” decides she no longer wants to play the role of wife and now wants to be recognized as the husband? Does she have to forfeit her award?
I suppose that in the near future when a man can have two wives, or a lesbian can have two female partners, this “Wife of the Year” crap is going to get very complicated.
My God, I’m SO glad my hubby retired this year.
So glad.
But I hate to say it ...our nation’s young people, although many valiant and serving us proudly, also have very liberal ideas about this. I wouldn’t doubt that a lot of them who are on active duty now have no problem with this.
Times have just changed. America has changed. And not for the better. Everyone under 30 is sympathetic to the gay cause.

Two generations of progressive education have done the deed.
And of course under-30s live on social media which is pretty much owned and operated by leftists.

You are correct. Views about this have changed dramatically among the younger generations. During this past election cycle I dealt with many younger people that are basically conservative or open to conservatism on economic issues (especially debt), but won't even consider voting Republican because of our positions on gay marriage and other social issues. It really is appalling how out of favor conservatives/Republicans are with the under 30's. Many of these young people don't even see voting conservative as an option. This is a result of the left having entirely taken over the education and entertainment establishments. We ceded these areas to the secular socialists and it will likely take generations to reverse the damage.
Take note, those of you who think the military would overwhelmingly side with traditional liberties and the Constitution, as opposed to their chain of command and their paymaster in the event of a crisis, civil war or a putsch.
There would be a split - who got the bigger part of the wishbone no one will know unless and until it breaks.
next up, military clergy forced to perform gay marriages and the churches must accommodate the ceremonies.
