‘Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell’ Is Gone, But Its Effects Still Haunt LGBT Veterans

Don’t ask don’t tell was a big improvement over the previous policy where they would ask you directly if you were gay during meps and if you said yes you were disqualified. Don’t ask don’t tell allowed homosexuals to serve without lying as long as they didn’t tell anyone about it. It was an intermediate step to open service. So, the article is idiotic about her story because before DADT she would have been ASKED about it. Crap people, do research and understand the collective history as military memebers that we all share.
