Lieutenant Colonel Victor J. Fehrenbach, a fighter weapons systems officer, has been flying the F-15E Strike Eagle since 1998. He has flown numerous missions against Taliban and al-Qaida targets, including the longest combat mission in his squadron's history. On that infamous September 11, 2001, Lt. Col. Fehrenbach was handpicked to fly sorties above the nation's capital. Later he flew combat missions in Iraq and Afghanistan. He has received at least 30 awards and decorations including nine air medals, one of them for heroism, as well as campaign medals for Kosovo, Afghanistan, and Iraq. He is now a flight instructor in Idaho, where he has passed on his skills to more than 300 future Navy, Marine Corps, and Air Force weapons systems officers. Since 1987, when Fehrenbach entered Notre Dame on a full Air Force ROTC scholarship, the government has invested twenty-five million dollars in training and equipping him to serve his country, which he has done with what anyone would agree was...

I think that's a right decision. In Turkey, if you are gay, you are discharged automatically. it happens so much that nobody cares about it anymore. I can't think of an army full of gays. Sorry :(
- deerstep
So if you don´t say it or show it how does the Turkish or US army tell ? Gaydar ? See, it´s actually the act of being open about it that is punished, not actually being gay, even if you have have been protecting everyone of your nation and ensuring they can pursue happiness regardless of colour, opinion or orientation. This makes it even more despicable and hypocritical IMO.
- ɯɥøq sɐɯoɥʇ
Onur: that would be the problem right there; the banality of evil so to speak when a society becomes habituated to discrimination so that "no one even cares any more" something's definitely wrong with that society, it also begs the question who's next? As Helen pointed out discrimination can happen to any one. However to this post, it proves sexual orientation doesn't factor in to performance on the battle field.

Thomas: I think army officers has to be educated in a different way. Army is not really a place for any conflicts. You can't bring a communist soldier and a racist soldier together and want them to fight together for their country. They both love their nation, but they won't fight together. We need a homogeneous system in Army. And I don't see it as 'punishment' If you are different...

There is not a homogeneous system now, nor will there ever be one. DADT is stupid and needs to be changed.

Here is the best quote I have seen about this from vetvoice.com: "But here is the most egregious facet of this case: DADT supporters argue that open homosexual service is detrimental to unit cohesion. Which damages unit cohesion more? A homosexual serving in a military unit who has not allowed his sexual orientation to interfere with his professionalism or his career, or removing a decorated fighter pilot and combat leader with 18 years of experience from his unit two weeks before deployment?

Michelle: I actually don't know much about US or any other army. I'm speaking for Turkish army, here army officers usualy don't have different backgrounds.

While I agree the policy doesn't make sense, it *IS* policy. By not adhering to it, he gave the goverment every right from a legal standpoint to "fire" him. He signed a contract. Does it make his achievements smaller? No. Will I get flamed for this? Maybe. People tend to overlook the fact that the policy is known and that it's basically a breach of contract.
- caj needs a haircut
Alan Jackson: Agreed. However... It is a policy maybe 10% of the soldiers, both enlisted and officer, I served with agreed with the 10yrs I was active. It is a policy that has, at the least, questionable civil rights issues. It is a policy that like any before it which discriminate can only be helped through protest actions like this.
- Michael W. May
Cecily - of course some of that forced diversity wasn't always positive. In WW I, for example, new immigrants (who weren't citizens yet) were drafted into the military. Many of them knew little to no English (a small part of my dissertation discusses them). The military arranged for literacy education for them so that they could learn to follow orders (as in, they were never expected to be in a position to give orders). But, in many ways the military has been more successful at integration.
- Katy S
Cecily - also, I agree with what you said regarding the fighter pilot getting more attention than the linguists. He is in a traditionally masculine part of a masculine institution.
- Katy S
I just find it interesting that those who are in a position to essentially protect the civil rights of a country's citizens don't fall under the order of having their own rights protected.
- Derrick
Derrick - agreed. It's a ridiculous law (as are some others).
- Katy S

- Hutch Carpenter
Michael, I just want folks to realize that the government is releasing him not because he's gay but because it's against a policy. If people focused on the need for a policy change instead of saying the government is stupid or whatever, then something more productive might happen. Talk to your congressperson. Act! That's how to prevent things like this from happening in the future.
- caj needs a haircut
Cecily - Yeah, my brain is stuck in my dissertation right now (I was just working on that military-related section, so that's where I went). Ultimately, a lot of imperfect people have made changes that are ultimately for the better. Hopefully this is one more area where there will be positive change soon.

"Interestingness," if i may, is not a direct result of being interested. Interestingnesss can be described as a perceived value - whatever that might mean - of a person. The person however has to spend time and efforts to "build" that value, which then serves an attraction factor or sign of being interesting. Being interested -> learning new stuff, experiences -> increasing value. Sorry for somewhat scientifically rendered para :)

Faboo: I only know Tad from his online rep but that was not a racist comment. That individual allowed his more primitive or "animalistic" behavior patterns to over-whelm the training that I know that he has had. I only made it to brown belt but it was instilled in us from the beginning to have respect for the referee and your opponent ie. the 2 bows prior to all matches.

Lifetime banning is the least Matos deserves. Hopefully Cuba has something else in mind. To faboo mama, the word made me squirm, but I don't recall TD doing anything else to make me wonder.

That's an interesting question. I guess it depends on your definition of "important" and "beginning". In the very beginning, the only definite vision was to make something "better". However, pretty much everything in there today had been prototyped or at least talked about well before launch (see the chat integration in http://www.techcrunch.com/wp-cont... for example). As usual, coming up with the ideas is easy, but fitting them cleanly into the product is hard.
