Of course, this story is only getting publicity because the dude's gay. Kudos to the dude for serving honorably - but I'm still unconvinced that having openly gay soldiers will be a good thing. Somehow stories that demonstrate why it is not good to have gay soldiers in the army wouldn't get the airplay this one's going to get.
What I found most disturbing about this story, however, was that UCSB has a Center for the Study of Sexual Minorities in the Military. That's almost as ridiculous as China having a Minister for Extreme Sports. I'm sure the taxpayers of California are happy that their money is being used for useful research.
