Why wasn’t “Stephen” identified by his rank?
I didn’t hear the booing, because as soon as the video was over I wondered aloud to my wife why the service member’s rank was not given.
In every case I can think of where a service member is on the news media, they are identified by their rank, even after their ETS.
This stood out to me.

I wondered the same, I also wondered why he first sent in a video with his face hidden, then uncovered after the repeal. (as MK made sure to dramatically tell everyone)
Everyone knew DADT was to be repealed, he never needed to cover his face (he could have stipulated if the DADT repeal was somehow blocked, just go with sound or blur his face)
He had on his Iraq tee, he said he had to lie before being deployed to Iraq for fear of losing his job—does that mean somebody broke the DADT law in asking him? Was he suspected?
I just found him suspect or very dramatic.
I noticed that too and wondered why his rank was not given.
