After being drafted, going through basic at Fort Ord, I was sent to Aberdeen Proving Ground for assignment. There, the homosexual first sergeant in charge of personnel took a liking to me and had me held in “casual” status for 90 days. I found that he was stealing from the mess, turned him in, and he was court martialed. His buddy, a member of a homosexual ring on that base then took over. He sent me to the worst ordnance post he could find. So, don’t ever tell me that homosexuals in the military are of no consequence.
