Gay Airman on DADT Repeal: 'We've Been Here All Along'

It was the tears of Marine Captain Sarah Pezzat, whose nickname in the military is “Short Shot,” that put a human face on “Don't Ask, Don't Tell” and what it's repeal means for the estimated 65000 gay members of the military.

Time when Navy Lieutenant Gary Ross married Dan Swezy, and when the repeal of the Don't Ask Don't Tell policy went into effect.

America throwing away that nasty garbage of a policy, Don´t Ask Don´t Tell, many celebrities are flooding Twitter their joy of the news.

The Pentagon's "don't ask, don't tell" policy barring gays and lesbians from serving openly in the military officially ended at 12:01 a.m. Tuesday morning after 17 years.

As the repeal of the military's "don't ask, don't tell" policy went into effect, we heard many stories out about how service members are marking the occasion. But one of them has emerged as particularly personal.

Long-awaited repeal of "Don't Ask, Don't Tell," the 1993 law prohibiting gay men and women from serving openly in the US military.
