Taps for Don't Ask, Don't Tell

Our coverage of the repeal of the U.S. military's ban on openly lesbian and gay servicemembers includes a review of the policy's history (from Pacifica's Democracy Now!), the true identity of Outserve's "J.D. Smith" (from MSNBC's Rachel Maddow Show), and a repeal celebration at the Los Angeles Gay & Lesbian Center (with Steve Pride on the scene). You'll hear the voices of Army Lieutenant Dan Choi, Servicemembers United Executive Director Alexander Nicholson, Navy Commander Zoe Dunning, Air Force First Lieutenant and Outserve leader Josh Seefried, Servicemembers Legal Defense Network Board member Tom Carpenter, and other active duty and veteran U.S. lesbian, gay, and bisexual military personnel.
