‘Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell’ Challenge Still Alive
Item: Decision keeps 'don't ask, don't tell' challenge alive/Karen Dorn Steele, SR
More Info: A federal appeals court has denied a request to reconsider a decision that keeps alive a challenge to the military’s “don’t ask, don’t tell” policy for gay soldiers brought by a former Air Force nurse from Spokane. Major Margaret Witt, a highly decorated Air Force flight nurse, was suspended from the Air Force after a military board found she had practiced and declared her homosexuality – a violation of “don’t ask, don’t tell.” She was honorably discharged in October 2007.
Question: Do you support the military's "don't ask, don't tell" policy for gay soldiers?
