After Action

Serving With Pride

From 1994 until 2011, the military operated under a policy called "Don't Ask, Don't Tell," which prohibited openly gay or bisexual people from serving in the armed forces. While that policy was repealed, its legacy reverberates today, depriving some veterans of their full benefits. And though service members may now serve openly as their authentic selves, some fear future legislation or executive orders may negatively impact their service. James Bond, Tammy Smith and Jason Vero, three veterans who served - and are serving - with pride, join host Stacy Pearsall.
