I have no problems with homosexuals in the military. The military is filled with them and I personally shared an open barracks with a half dozen. Everybody did their jobs and personal lives were conducted off base............nobody cared. So any claim that homosexuals in the military leads to a decrease in morale is bogus...........
In fact, my experience in the military shows me that politics, social issues, race and sexual identity all take a back seat to mission objectives and comaraderie............
Just keep in mind that the same arguments against homosexuals in the military were also to a certain extent once used against blacks.........and those proved bogus also.
You have your opinion and I have mine. I have a hard time believing you knowingly knew you had several living in the barracks with you. In my 20 years in the Army, I NEVER had ONE admit being a homosexual around any other troop. I know of several who were kicked out for it, but never admitting they were and living in the barracks with them. They would not have survived. I find your statement very very hard to believe.
