Disadvantages of Homosexuals in the Army

Abstract

The very nature of homosexuals serving in the Army has been an issue of hot debate throughout the history of the Army. Many think open homosexuality is incompatible to the Army way of life. Others think it is time to implement the policy of allowing open homosexuals to serve. Many things are at stake, such as unit moral, unit cohesion, and disharmony among soldiers. Other issues, such as the need to build our Army to higher numbers by allowing open homosexuals to serve, come into play as debate over the current policy. Public opinion also plays a major role in what government thinks should happen with the policy. This paper will focus on the disadvantages of homosexuals serving openly in the Army.
