Speaking as a lesbian in a military family, I found this book riveting. It's amazing how many reasons there have been to discriminate against gays in the military, possibly the least of which have anything to do with gays in the military. Like so many Pentagon decisions, this one is rooted in politics, and innocent servicemembers and taxpayers pay the price. Fascinating. I HIGHLY recommend it.
