The mass casualties in Iraq and Afghanistan have been relatively small in terms of past wars involving America.

The walking blood supply is one of the important issues in any discussion of permitting open homosexuality in the military.

If homosexuality is openly permitted, then one can no more complain about a US homosexual shacking up with a local than you can complain about a US heterosexual shacking up with a local.

Homosexuals are shockingly promiscuous in their number of partners and in their lack of standards in selecting partners. Any HIV test given prior to deployment would be obsolete within weeks given that the infectiousness of HIV infection is evident mere weeks after infection.

In short, would you want your child given a transfusion during a mass casualty on a battlefield? Just as important, would you want your child denied a transfusion because of suspect blood in the unit? Would you want to be a part of a unit where your blood could save the lives of unit members, but some blood in that unit no one would want to get near? Would that enhance morale?

You do have a point there. Within the civilian population, blood donors are questioned about sexual activity and any male who has had sex with another male since 1977 (or is it ‘79?) is not allowed to donate blood.

Thanks, xzins, for the ping.

This isn't really a "regular" HA pingout. But xzins' comment is exactly to the point, and just one of the reasons homosexuals should not be admitted in the military (albeit a very important reason). Even "don't ask don't tell" isn't stringent enough. It should be "ask, and if it's the wrong answer, show them the door of the recruting center".

I had no idea that this was happening. Those who risk their lives for our country deserve far better; they deserve the very best of current medical practice.

In answer to your questions: No.

Thanks for posting this. I suspect that their are many like me who were completely unaware of this situation.

You are exactly right!

Additionally, there is NO REASON why the blood cannot be screened. The combined casualties in Iraq and Afghanistan do not even approach the casualties of single days in past wars. We have more than ample supplies of blood and the ability to screen it.
