WASHINGTON — The Army fired 11 soldiers in January for violating the military's policy that gay service members must keep their sexuality hidden, according to a Virginia congressman.

Democratic Rep. Jim Moran said he has requested monthly updates from the Pentagon on the impact of the "don't ask, don't tell" policy until it is repealed.

In a statement released yesterday, Moran said the discharged soldiers included an intelligence collector and four infantry personnel.

Crazy stuff, they are short on new recruits but are openly firing gay soldiers who have all the training they need to remain in the military just because of who they are attracted to.
