I read in the paper this morning an AP story about the head of the Marines, who had been a very outspoken critic of the idea of integrating openly gay marines into service. He was adamantly against it. Today he stated that his concerns were completely unfounded and there have been absolutely NO problems with marines being open about their sexuality. He actually said he had been WRONG!

This is a brave man, to publicly state that he was wrong about this issue. I admire anyone who can publicly say they were wrong. Of course, he must have known that there have been gay marines as long as there have been marines. But kudos to him...
