Soon free to serve

Obama, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs Mike Mullen, and Sec. Defense Leon Panetta have signed a certification that the Dept. Defense has put all necessary policies and regulations in place and that allowing gays to serve in the military does not disrupt military readiness, effectiveness, unit cohesion, recruiting, and retention. That means 60 days from signing, Sept. 20, the Don't Ask, Don't Tell policy will be revoked. Gays may then serve openly.
