Reese Davidson, a first year GW law student, argues that now is the time to behind repealing the military’s “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” policy regarding homosexuals serving in the armed forces.
“The events at GW remind us of the urgency to repeal the “don’t ask, don’t tell” policy. Midshipman Belok, whose grandfather served in World War II, has dreamed of serving in the Navy since his early teen years. The experience of being kicked out of ROTC has not left him bitter though. He told the Hatchet that he will serve in the Navy someday, when the policy changes. The United States cannot afford to wait.”
Bravo Reese for articulately and convincingly explaining why DADT is a failed policy and should be repealed. I hope the whole student body will join SLDN for its Lobby day on March 13 to tell Congress that the time has come to repeal this failed policy.
