Due to current Uned Stat ary regulatn, LGBT (lbian, gay, bisexual, transgenr) cizens have to keep their sexual orientatn a secret if they want to serve any branch of the armed forc. In 1993, an attempt to stifle prott om the gay muny, Print Bill Clton iated the “don’t ask don’t tell” policy (DADT) wh the Uned Stat armed forc.
The policy dited that while homosexual cizens uld still serve the armed forc, they uld not do so if they announced their sexual orientatn. This policy mirrored a ban prevly stated the Uned Stat which universally banned all homosexuals om servg the armed forc. In other words, DADT was different bee only “banned gays and lbians om servg openly uniform” (O’Keefe).

By lookg further to the racial and genr-based tegratn procs unrgone by the Uned Stat ary the past, we will be able to foree how tegratg homosexuals will likely affect the armed forc. By analyzg the supposed trimental effects of homosexual tegratn to the Uned Stat ary on un hn and bat effectivens, as well as the burn tegratn would put on the budget of the central ernment, we will hopefully be able to appreciate the views of those who support the DADT policy.

This number reprents all members of the Uned Stat Army, Navy, Air Force, and Coast Guard who were discharged bee they were lbian, gay, bisexual, or transgenr. When asked how their level of morale would be affected if after DADT is repealed they were workg wh a service member their immediate un who has said he or she is gay or lbian, 43. A siar statistic is prented when the same sample is qutned regardg the affect that the repealg of DADT will have on their own personal job performance if they are workg a un wh an openly gay or lbian service member.
For the most part, today’s world, major nondomtic ari allow homosexual cizens to openly serve their armed forc. In terms of the 43 untri the North Amerin Treaty Organizatn (NATO), 35 of those untri have no ban on gay or lbian service wh their armed forc (“Report”).

More specifilly, Germany the early 1990s, any ban on LGBT ary service was officially lifted (“Gay German Soldier”). In the years followg, homosexuals, by German ary law, were then allowed to bee ary officers as well. In rearch done by Congrs regardg the polici of homosexuals foreign ary, was found that Atralia has allowed homosexuals to serve openly their armed forc sce 1992 (“Sexual Orientatn”).
Ultimately the most polilly rrect argument stems om the fact that vasn of privacy (specifilly when homosexuals may observe heterosexuals undrs, th rultg sexual excement) will lead to dimishg morale and ultimately a ls effective bat un.
Beg realistic, and lookg at the effect on bat effectivens, one n appreciate the negative repercsns the tegratn of homosexuals bat-ready rol may arise. The fact of the matter is that if a bat-ready Uned Stat Mare is uneasy about roomg wh a homosexual, his bat effectivens will crease, and th negatively affect the overall succs of the missn at hand. General Conway particular has been quoted sayg, "We sometim ask Mar what is their preference and I n tell you that an overwhelmg majory would like not to be roomed wh a person who is openly homosexual" (“Mare Lears”).
