This makes a lot of sense: “A decorated sergeant and Arabic language specialist was dismissed from the U.S. Army under the “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” policy, though he says he never told his superiors he was gay and his accuser was never identified.” Right, because the Army has way too many Arabic language specialists just sitting around.
