OK, I've been on the side lined reading this thread so I asked a good friend of mine who is in the Marine Corps about this. His response: "I was in a fox hole one time overnight and it was really cold. We huddled together to stay warm and used each others body heat basically by spooning to stay warm. The last thing I would want on my mind in that situation is if the guy in back of me was going to pop a woody". That is a true story and the answer he gave me. I'm not saying they shouldn't serve and to be honest, since I was never in the military, I don't even think I should have an opinion on it since the military knows better than civilians what impact this has. They are the ones who should decide. I feel that if it compromises moral or effectiveness the answer should be no. It's lives on the line that needs to be thought about, not inclusioon and making everyone happy. Let the military decide, give each soldier a vote.
