Bardorf wrote that the exception was applicable only to the
2012 San Diego gay-pride event.
{mosads}The move is the latest by the Pentagon that celebrates its
gay service members since the military’s “Don’t ask, don’t tell” policy was
repealed last year. The Defense Department held its first gay-pride event at
the Pentagon last month, which included a speech from Pentagon General Counsel
Jeh Johnson.
Last year, military members participated in the parade by
wearing T-shirts from their branches, but this year several members had
requested to participate in uniform, according to local reports.
