A new study is being released this week examining how various foreign armies have moved to accept openly gay service members. Britain, Canada, Australia and South Africa all allow gay men and lesbians to openly serve. The study by the Palm Center found that the move has not undermined morale or caused large resignations. The study is being released as the Obama administration is beginning to take steps toward repealing the Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell policy. While the Pentagon says it needs to take a year to implement the new policy, the Palm Center study concludes that a speedy implementation of the change is not disruptive.
