If you want to read about the effects of widespread and widely accepted homosexuality on a uniformed force, I suggest any of the histories of the SA.

Yes, I'm aware of the Pink Swastika information about the Nazi SA and Ernst Roehm (that for some reason was never widely circulated during the War, one has to wonder why), and I'm also aware of careerism in the officer and senior enlisted ranks.

Hopefully Congress can cripple Obama's policy initiative through the appropriation process, by vigorously tigering ALL his leftwing policy nostrums in committee markups.

There is some suggestion, murmured now and again in liberal circles, that Obama will play for another shutdown of the Government, using the government checks as a hook to "bring along" public opinion. (Which FDR and LBJ always intended them to be.) It worked for the Clintons and made sissies out of the Republicans in Congress in 1996.

Information about the “pink” character of SA leadership has been all but suppressed - now. I remember during the 70’s my college professors stressed this part of the SA, but I doubt you'll find much mention these days about homosexuality in the SA.
