Again, explain how officers could be reassigned NOW. That was my confusion in your statement.
My Dad was in the Military & Gay before don't ask don't tell, and he had to stay Closeted because once you were outed, just like now, you got booted. Except then (I believe) you may get jail time. I don't understand it being repealed and allowing the openly Gay to serve would be an issue. The regressive bigots who would be thrown in the brig for doing anything to a fellow openly gay soldier, no different than when blacks & hispanics were integrated.
