A group of House Armed Services Committee Democrats is demanding answers from the Pentagon on why it is backing away from its annual Pride celebration.
We write to express our concern that Pentagon leadership is backing away from supporting and celebrating lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) service members and Department of Defense (DoD) employees, the eight Democrats wrote in a letter to Defense Secretary James Mattis. The fight for dignity and inclusion for LGBT individuals in our Armed Forces should remain a steadfast priority for the Department of Defense.
The letter was organized by Rep. Anthony Brown (D-Md.).
This year, for the first time since the 2011 repeal of Dont Ask, Dont Tell, the Pentagon did not issue a memo officially recognizing June as Pride Month. Without the official recognition, the Pentagons Office of Diversity Management and Equal Opportunity did not issue posters and other materials to mark the occasion as it has done in the past.
The Pentagons LGBT employee group did hold its annual celebration earlier this month. No senior official was on stage, though Army Sgt. Maj. Daniel Dailey and Vee Penrod, acting secretary for manpower and reserve affairs, attended.
The low-key celebration came as the Trump administrations attempt to ban transgender service members continues to be fought in court.

All of this sh*t started when Joe Biden came out for homos in the Kenyan’s second term. When I was in the Army, we were all “green” people serving one purpose. “Special” people was reserved for Special Forces.
Because homosexuality is death to a nation and to a military force.
The military duty is to train soldiers to kill and destroy our enemies. Unit cohesion and comradery building. Not to participate in ignorant social engineering farces!
“its amazing that in 25 years weve gone from what two consenting adults do together in their own bedroom is nobodys business to bow before the altar of perversity genuflect before it”
If we don’t learn from history we repeat it. This is what a homosexual agenda is and that’s why it must not be allowed in any form.
“No- its not just confined to the bedroom”
Nope, homo rights are a tool to persecute and destroy Christians and anyone else who has a contrary sexual ethic.
Seriously...what “pride” is there in being mentally ill?
>>Funny how homosexuals use one sin (pride) to describe their sexual sin (homosexuality)<<
One of the seven deadly sins: Pride Goeth Before Destruction. Proverbs 16:18
>>The Military is not a Social Experiment, unless you like having Pregnant Sailors on our Warships.<<
Correction: Pregnant women
The Sailors snuck Civilian Women aboard?
Let me guess, Operation Petticoat?
“The Hill”... LGBT 24/7. Seems it was founded by LGBT supporters and is staffed with them.
Recognizing a “homosexual pride month” is inappropriate for the Pentagon. But in fairness, it would be just as inappropriate for the Pentagon to recognize a “heterosexual pride month”.
Promoting sexual activity of any sort is not their job.
I served on a 6th fleet carrier. During the Atlantic crossings and in the Med for many months, there were several queers, who had apparently propositioned the wrong people, and then never showed up for morning muster. Same thing happened to black racists who had tried to stir up trouble.
I was in a flight deck division and seem to recall hearing they were all below deck sailors who shouldn’t have been topside at night.
Yeah, I was wondering where the pink boots were?
Another thing: we need to come up with another name for that 6 striped sin indicator. I think hexa means 6.
Bravo!
Pride goeth before destruction, a haughty spirit before a fall. - Proverbs 16:18
All 12 of them.
Because they hope that once they have your approval, you will then give them your consent....
