Tomorrow (June 30 2009) at 8:30am Lt. Dan Choi, an Iraq combat veteran, a graduate of West Point with a degree in Arabic, is going to face a panel of colonels who will decide whether or not to fire him -- to discharge him from the military for "moral and professional dereliction" under the military's "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy.

The Courage Campaign is trying to break 100,000 signatures in support of 1st Lt. Dan Choi. The letter of support will be presented at his “trial” as part of his defence. If you can, please sign this letter of support:

You may ask: how does this relate to relationships? Simple. The pretence of DADT is: "Just keep your personal and your professional life separate." Yet that rule only applies to homosexuals. What happens when you meet your personal life AT your profession? Should you be fired for it, or discussing it in even so benign a way as to admit you are in a relationship?
