Pentagon report 'a gift' to LGBTs on Veterans Day
Details of study come just hours

A 370-page Pentagon study on implementing
repeal of "don't ask, don't tell" will report Dec. 1

Openly gay Air Force veteran David Guy-

Guy-Gainer is a retired Air Force chief master
sergeant and a board member for Servicemem-

better gift for Veterans Day," he said.

Obama administration filed a brief with the U.S.
Supreme Court asking that the military be al-

Katyal argued that the stay is necessary because
the injunction would cause "the government the
kind of irreparable injury that rou tinely forms the
basis for a stay pending appeal."
U.S. District Court Judge: Virginia Phillips is-
sued an injunction against enforcement of DADT
last month in the wake of her earlier ruling, in a
case brought by Log Cabin Republicans, that
DADT is unconstitutional. The Ninth Circuit
Court of Appeals issued a stay of Phillips' injunc-
tion, and Log Cabin Republicans appealed that
