Well the bill that allows gays to serve openly in the Military has passed and was signed into law.
No more "Don't ask Don't tell".

So just imagine......................

You're a Marine...... in a combat situation, an enemy soldier is firing at you, and running toward your position.

The guy next to you is openly gay.

Then your Squad Leader yells out.......... "Shoot the cock sucker!"

Do you see the confusion here?

What confusion? A Marine is taught to obey orders without delay, especially in a combat situation. He doesn't know anything about the guy coming at him or what his preferences are, so......................

"Friendly" fire is now known as "Buddy" fire, and can be authorized by the squad leader no less....

It's good exercise to keep the troops clean and fit to fight.
