Obama recently signed the bill that will allow gays to serve openly in the
military. No more Don't Ask, Don't Tell.
What he has done has raised the potential for more confusion in the ranks.
Confusion during the heat of battle is not uncommon but it is not a good thing
when focus, concentration and discipline are vitally important and can mean the
difference between life and death.
Consider the following scenario ...
You're in a combat situation, the enemy is firing at you and one is running
directly toward your position ...
The guy next to you is openly gay, someone yells out ...
"SHOOT THE COCKSUCKER !!!! "
Do you see the potential for confusion?
