If someone has pdf conversion capabilities, they could post the entire memorandum from Panetta, since it is a government website.

So when are these gay goofballs getting the option of moving into the married housing.

In the military, there are some advantages to being married - more pay, permission to live away from barracks if enlisted, medical care, px entry for spouse....but I’m sure nobody would abuse this with a ‘gay partner’ routine.
I was in the Army when Don’t Ask Don’t Tell went into place. Some soldiers who wanted out would jokingly state they were gay. I always had the same response: Prove It :)

And, thus, the destruction of the world’s greatest military continues.
When we find ourselves unable to defeat the Mexican army, perhaps then the political elites will get it.
Of course, by then, it will be too late.

How can Panetta grant any benefits to unrelated queers, that congress has limited to only related family of service members?
Did he find that listed under ‘sexual partner’ defined benefits’ in some military handbook?
Will normal G.I.’s be able to give the same benefits to girlfrinds, including base housing? If not, why not?

So, the Department of Defense now only discriminates against opposite sex domestic partnerships.

Does this extend to real families, like siblings and parents, or is sexual interaction a necessary component?

Well, ladies, you finally get the goddamned common courtesy of a reach-around. Now, who glazed this doughnut?
