Separate quarters and showers would be a necessity. Would the Leftists ever consider housing men and women in the same room??? Let alone require them to have communal showers??? The Leftists haven't thought this whole thing through. They are just pandering to their Leftist moonbat base. The American people are smarter than this!

Are gays going to have a higher KIA (killed in action) rate due to a lack of mutual coverage?

They will probably be assigned to blow up the enemy?
.
They just have to suck it up to get the mission accomplished.

The survey was designed and written to elicit the “PC” response. Couple that with the fact that although it was supposed to be anonymous, there is always the possibility it would be tracked.

Many guys would not want to jeopardize their military careers by responding in a certain way. It’s just the way of the world. They have to hold their political opinions very close to the vest.

The vast majority or military people we know don’t particularly care if someone is gay or not, they feel it is irrelevant to the job and “Don’t ask, don’t tell” WORKS because sexuality should not be an issue.

My son is a Navy Captain and began his tour 24 years ago in a boomer sub, the USS Alaska, and he is 100% against open gays in the military, especially the sub service.

He said it is a prescription for a disaster and multiple law suits.

He told me that the media is just making up the numbers as there has been no formal "secret" vote by the average military folks.

You can't have a superior officer ask these kinds of questions to junior officers and enlisted men and expect to get honest answers.

This is a seriously bad idea.

Its easy to say “no problem” when its not a reality. I don’t know combat units, but I know sailors. When the Navy screws up the implementation of this policy; and they will, the crap will hit the fan. As soon as a sailor sees someone else getting a better deal or getting out of some duty, or even having better berthing on the ship, the hate and discontent will begin to boil up. Expect the number of “new” gay sailors to jump when full realization of the bennies comes to light.

I don’t think the CIC has the gay lobby at heart with this plan. It is the only pro-gay legislation that I recall him backing. Therefore he is doing this to bring down the military in any way he can, along with defunding, using budget cuts as an excuse while our enemies get stronger.

The enlistment numbers will fall.
The re-enlistment rate will fall.

Eventually the numbers will be significant enough to force a reinstatement of the military draft.

When the draft is re-instated this time, both males and females will be drafted (to be fair, they will say).

Christian girls and their parents who sincerely believe in the Biblical role for women, live and practice it in their homes and in their child training (as millions still do around the country), had better begin preparing your conscientious objection defense for the courts.

They should put all the queers in the same unit and send them to the area where the fiercest fighting is;repeat the process until no one is standing.

Clearly, the statist’s goal is to destroy our current military. Right now, majority of men and women in the military take an oath to uphold the Constitution, i.e. tend to vote for Republicans.

After they have been pushed out, the statist’s ideal people will replace them. Voila! You have an army to serve dictators, not the people. It's just another step to take the U.S. down.

Facts on Gays in the military -—

~ 2-4% of male soldiers are Gay
~ 40% of female soldiers are lesbos

Therefore the purpose of overturning Don't Ask, Don't Tell
is to fully incorporate lesboism into open military life!
