We have no disagreement. Here's what I said again:

"Darksheare, it may be “hushed up” in the sense that it isn’t announced to the world, and the service member isn’t kicked out, but HIPAA privacy rules are not absolute... An HIV+ service member is absolutely precluded from being deployed outside the continental U.S."

Here's what I said again:

No. This is what you said: Post 45

All recruits are tested for HIV, and a positive result precludes entry. They are tested at least every two years, and before and after each deployment.

Now that you've been proved wrong you changed your statement but posts do not simply disappear.

I figured I’d toss in those links, just for the record, so to speak.

Homosexuals don’t belong in the military. And people can be infected and infective often for (IIRC) a couple of months before tests show positive. It varies of course. There are many other reasons why homosexuals don’t belong in the military, but even the AIDS reason alone is enough to kick ‘em all out and let none back in.
