The Gist

Ugly Discharge

Darren Manzella, the army medic who came out of the closet to his commander way back in 2006 (and was eventually redeployed back to Iraq despite his admission) has just been discharged. Manzella testified before Congress, appeared on 60 Minutes and talked with us on the show as well. It's just ridiculous that the Military is forced to kick an eminently qualified medic out of the military at a time of war simply because he's gay. But then again, you probably already knew that.
