Bye bye "Don't Ask, Don't Tell." A goofy, flawed policy whose shelving is long overdue. Maybe having a third "group" in the army will help take some of the pressure off women as well - the more diversity, the more commonplace and acceptable it becomes (one hopes). Regardless, it's death is welcome.
