Gay service members and their partners have existed in the military community for a long time although not truly accepted because of DADT (Don’t Ask Don’t Tell).
Now with the repeal of DADT gay military couples are now just as much part of the military community as anyone else but after receiving numerous private emails over the last year or so it has become apparent that many spouses in same sex relationships don’t know what resources are available to them , so that they can connect with others who are in the same situation.
Many of you are my readers and I thought it would be great to share some resources to help you.
