Gay Rights, Military Wrongs cover

First Published in 1996. From 1980 to 1990 nearly 17,000 service members were discharged from the military because of their homosexuality. This book places the debate of homosexual military service in its historical, theoretical, and political context. Timely and compelling, with all the court options in the highly published cases of Col. Margarethe Cammermeyer, Gay Rights, Military Wrongs, reports on the state of prejudice and discrimination facing today's homosexual military personnel and their prospects for future equality.

"For historians, these essays offer a careful accounting of the history of politics that is attentive to actors, institutions, and policy constraints." -- Christopher Capozzola
