"War Can Make Strange Bedfellows"
I believe verse 6 of David Bowie's song "Heroes" addresses this very subject!

Who knew the VP were so clarvoyant? Remember "In The Navy" and the refrain "We want you/we want you/we want you/as a new recruit"!
I'll spare the jokes about sea men, naval maneuvers and going down for the third time!

The present policy
What is kind of funny is that at times the military accepted gays. When I went to my army physical in 1969 for the draft, I checked the "box", I even took a letter from my shrink. I passed the physical.
Some of my friends a few years before this were failed when they checked the "box". But evidently by this time they were taking everyone. The "box" refers to the question that were you attracted to the same sex.
I also have the tape "Before Stonewall" which has great movies of gays in WWII service.
So there have been gays in our military. (Still are!!)
To say nothing of great military leaders such as Alexandar the Great.

"does not meet the moral standards of the military"
Just what might those standards be? After six years of the debacle in Iraq, and all the immoral incidents that have been reported, (and we can be sure there are plenty we will never hear about,) it is laughable that military officials even use the term "moral standards" any more. Lets see, the moral standards of the Bush administration are so high. Honey puhleeeez.
Perhaps that spineless Gen. Peter Pace, who does not have guts enough to stand up to Bush and his cronies could fill us in on the moral standards of the military. After hiding under a rock during the Abu Garib debacle, he has certainly been outspoken on the issue of gays in the military, claiming gays don't have a place in the military. But then, he knew he was about to retire, so why rock the boat and risk that full pension.
Gen. Pace has forgotten his place. He is a public servant and part of his income (and his pension) comes from gay taxpayers. I guess gay money is moral enough. The scumbag.
The gays I know and have known in the military are and always have been of the highest calibre.
