Service personnel indifferent to Don't Ask Don't Tell policy repeal

A Pentagon research revealed that most military members Don't care if the DADT policy is repealed or not. Members of the armed services think that a Don’t Ask Don’t Tell repeal wouldn’t have much effect if any. Americans that think the military ought to discriminate against sexual orientation are actually a minority, according to most polls.

No care originating from military employees

A study begun by the Pentagon several months ago, at the behest of Secretary of Defense Robert Gates, has revealed that the majority of service employees don’t think about the controversial “Don’t Ask Don’t Tell” policy, based on ABC. It seems like the government has been quite bad about leaked documents lately. Of course, it made Gates upset to discover out that his research outcomes were released by the Washington Post. The leaked portion of the study included the finding that 70 percent of respondents did not believe that Don’t Ask Don’t Tell repeal would really have any effect on anything in the military. There were 150,00 spouses of military employees and 400,000 military members that got the survey. Only 30 percent responded to it.

the DADT repeal supported by The United States

Polls and surveys from the last few years have been indicating that more Americans are for the repeal of the DADT policy. Cable News Network accounts that a Pew Research poll said 58 percent of Americans wanted the Don’t Ask Don’t Tell policy repealed while a CNN poll showed that 70 percent of Americans wanted Don’t Ask Don’t Tell repealed. Surveys, polls and statistics only ultimately indicate something about the subjects of the surveys and polls that really respond, and the country’s true opinion may be different. More people want the "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy to go away though it seems.

Shortly there can be an end

The next legislative session will be bringing up this problem probably. Debate raged over “Don’t Ask Don’t Tell” and allowing homosexuals to serve for years. Homosexuality was grounds for discharge for decades. Also, racial discrimination in the military military didn't stop until President Truman made an order.
