No because it was a different time, and that's the point. Society has changed and so has the military. Whether the decision to allow LGBT service members to openly identify themselves is benifictial or detrimental to society and the military is a personal opinion. And that was not the point of me responding to your post originally."My day" was long before DADT. The only berets worn in the Army were green and terrorists were shot on sight. We didn't have an illegal immigration problem and most cars still had chrome bumpers and round headlights. Pay telephones still occupied street corners and drug stores, and most phone numbers still had letter prefixes.
Shall I go on about ''my day''?
The only reason I brought up 2010 decision on the repeal is because you think that this decision is going to lead to hazing and discrimination of transsexuals in the military. I was merely pointing out that it is probably not going to be the case because of how smoothly the military transitioned after the DADT.
