The U.S. military is embracing a celebration of homosexuals in the ranks this month by sending out a gay pride poster and a directive to commands, while planning a Pentagon symposium that will be attended by Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel.
In the aftermath of ending the ban on open gays in the military, the Pentagon last June recognized Gay Pride Month for the first time in a subdued recognition of uniformed and civilian gays. As defense secretary at the time, Leon E. Panetta gave a public statement, and a Pentagon event featured an active-duty gay Marine, a gay Air Force civilian lawyer and a lesbian who had served in the Army.
Pride month is low-key again this year. The Pentagon has handed off planning for the event to DOD Pride, an organization of gay military and civilian employees. Directives that have been issued do not say commands must hold similar celebrations.
“Secretary Hagel looks forward to participating in this year’s DOD Pride event at the Pentagon on Tuesday, June 25 to celebrate LGBT Pride Month,” Pentagon spokesman George Little said.

Sickening in the extreme.
Where is the tribute to those who quietly serve as the overwhelming majority, those who manage life long to keep their sexual proclivities to themselves.
God Help Us!
I am afraid God will just abandon America or just destroy America. Or let Obama continue to destroy America.
I cannot believe what has happened to my country.
Great! (Sarcasm in play)
Ya got that right.. telling my grandchildren not to join up...sad really.
Exhibit “A” of why flaming homosexuals shouldn’t be in the military. If they just went in, did they tour, kept their zippers and MOUTHS shut — but NOOOOOO they want to be “celebrated” for being rump rangers. then they get offended if the other 98.5% of the population doesn’t get why some guy is overjoyed that he gets turned on by sticking his member up another guy’s butt and getting feces on it.
It’s unseemly to good unit order and causes unit dysfunction. Most decent men don’t want to put up HAVING TO LIVE WITH THEM in close quarters. It’s not fair to the NORMAL guys.
Kudos for saying it exactly like it is.
You put a fag in the White House you get fags in the military.
The question is , when will Obama openly come out of the closet?
God will just abandon America
I think He already has because we have turned away from Him.
It is time to declare Progressivism a religion...and implement the same [bogus] "separation of church and state" argument (Their precept) to stop their intolerance of others.
Is there a “Straight Pride Month?”
There’s 12 of them.
This happened on your watch, you are responsible.
YOU GUTLESS SODOMITE APPROVING BASTARDS.
How about a patriot pride month? Or southern heritage month?
Ditto .. I’ve said exactly the same to kids at church, neighbors and family.
And to the service chiefs
The Marine Chief in particular fought it, but once it becomes law, he really doesn’t have a choice.
It is demoralizing and disgusting. Honor, Courage and Commitment are a F’ing farce!
What other sexual sins will be officially promoted?
