I wonder if they are also going to modify the UCMJ. Seems to me they sort of have to do so.
Not many people realise this, but the UCMJ bans a whole lot more than just homosexual sex. Heterosexual oral and anal sex are also prohibited, and even married couples don’t get a pass. Fornication (premarital sex) is also against the rules, and that is almost universal these days.
In a sense, the military has always operated a DADT policy as far as illicit sex is concerned. That is, it turns a blind eye and doesn’t investigate unless it absolutely has to, for example if there is a major public scandal.
