Navy to Allow Same-Sex Marriage on Base
The Navy has announced that they will allow same-sex marriages to be performed in on-base facilities in states where they are legal. Navy chaplains may officiate. This means that, once Don't Ask/Don't Tell is finally dead and buried, gay sailors can get married openly and with pride in their own Navy chapels. This represents a huge cultural change, it seems to me. You might even call it a sea-change.
Label:
don't ask/don't tell
