The national ‘Voices of Honor’ Tour highlights the continuing use of the “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” law to fire competent, fit, and highly-skilled Americans from the U.S. military solely because of their sexual orientation. More than 13,500 men and women have been discharged from the military because of their sexual orientation, including more than 60 Arabic linguists and nearly 800 other service members in critical occupational fields.
