I used to be in the service and sexual prefferance does not matter if your a digger.. There's what we call professionalism and this has nothing to do with what your job is.. I've trained with homosexual diggers, be a blokes or a shiela, and even in the Spec.Op. Services have inlisted personnel that are sexualy deviant.. And they do their jobs at par with their heterosexual counterparts.. And believe me mates, these blokes are as tough as nails.. And buggering them 'round would prove deadly.. Definitely tougher than most of you blokes here.. There's a big difference of being "gay or lesbi" as a civi and being a servicemen..

Ok rana... "homosexuals were among the bravest and fiercest warriors in history. From the time of Alexander the Great to the two bloody wars in Iraq, gays have fought with valor" by Dan Mariano

Gays in fatigues

The old debate about gays serving in the military has sprung again because of statements coming out from Camp Aguinaldo that it was time to welcome them, with the opposite camp raising the red flag.

It appears the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) is short of 6,700 troops and is having a hard time filling the slots. This prompted Lt. Col. Ernesto Torres, chief of the AFP public affairs office, to say on Tuesday that gays were welcome to apply. But Army chief Lt. Gen. Victor Ibrado and Brig. Gen. Gaudencio Pangilinan, civil relations head, had reservations about the idea.

Ibrado, according to a Malaya story, answered a reporter’s question about the presence of homosexuals in the military thus: “Gusto mong malaman kiss muna. [You really want to know? Then give me a kiss].” Pangilinan said the military was not biased against the “third ***” but observed it would be “risky” to have gays in combat. “How would you feel if you are in a foxhole with a third ***, only the two of you?” he asked a newsman.

We believe that gays and lesbians fit into the military and serve with great distinction. The creativity, talent and cultural force of the “third ***” could serve the nation on the battlefield and in the other areas of public service.

Our opinion writer Dan Mariano has reminded us that homosexuals were among the bravest and fiercest warriors in history. From the time of Alexander the Great to the two bloody wars in Iraq, gays have fought with valor.

In his book, Coming Out of Fire, the writer Joe Steffan claims that 100,000 to 150,000 of the two million members of the US military are “gay, lesbian or bisexual.”

The AFP has no official policy on the recruitment of gays. It could do no wrong by adopting the US military’s rule of “don’t ask, don’t tell.” Gays sign up or are recruited without the brass demanding to know their sexual preference. Recruits are not required to volunteer information about their *** life.

Gays should run for president, Sen. Miriam Santiago once said. Educator and columnist Dan Remoto demands sectoral representation for gays, lesbians and transsexuals in the House of Representatives under the party-list system. They inhabit the Cabinet, judiciary and the bureaucracy. As for service in the military, we support all moves to advance gay rights, except for a suggestion that the Army should form an all-gay battalion for ceremonial purposes.
