Tracing the US armed forces' attitudes to lesbians and gays from the American War of Independence to the present day, this book weaves together the stories of dozens of individuals - both funny and tragic. It shows the hypocrisy of the American military who have been quite happy to tolerate homosexuality in the forces during wartime, but have cracked down heavily on the supposedly disruptive influence of homosexuals in peacetime, ruining numerous lives and driving many to suicide.
