You are correct, that I am assuming that the openly gay or straight soldiers I want around me are professional and committed peers, who would share a viscious will for my unit to survive anything that we would encounter.

If they are not the above, get em out of my unit.

I'm confused though.......What does sexuality have to do with being committed or professional?

Because laying in a ditch with someone who you know does the most despicable things is disgusting. If you do have to lay down you life for someone it helps that you have a little respect for that person as a normal human being and worth the sacrifice. Their blood may be red but there is a high probability it might be HIV +. An annual physical isn't going to cut it. They'll have to test blood weekly.

Nothing, unless you're more concerned that everyone know you are a "gay" serviceman/woman rather than just a serviceman. I think it shows where your real commitment lies.

Unfortunately, I can't take you seriously since you threw out the race=sexuality canard in another post. At that point, in my eyes, you lost your credibility.

Homosexuals are mentally ill, harbor and spread incredible diseases, notoriously promiscous, and a terrible security risk. The are obsessed with unnatural sexual gratification, prone to drug and alcohol abuse, and commit more "domestic" violence and child molestation than the general public.
