More than 800 U.S. military veterans receive honorable discharges from the Pentagon's "don't ask, don't tell" records review.
npub1h72a0jgfvgfcy3wj5f67j3ugjkn7gapcwy0q8kx9ks95fptw7y4sf2z3d9 (npub1h72…z3d9) reports: "The news comes a little more than a year after proactively reviewing the records of LGBTQ+ veterans who might be eligible for an honorable discharge but had not yet applied for one. The 800+ veterans receiving this relief will see their discharge papers – known as a DD-214 – automatically change to 'honorable' without the burden of having to go through the military's formal process of applying for a discharge upgrade."
