I suspect that The Servicemembers Legal Defense Network's (SLDN) most recent media onslaught in support for the dismantling of the U.S. Military's "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" (DADT) policy will ultimately be the straw that finally breaks the camel's back, so to speak, and garners the critical, and necessary, 15 Congressional votes necessary for it's eventual repeal.

"Simply Brilliant" doesn't do adequate justice to this widely covered campaign, and frankly The Vatican's own media combine (amongst recent others I could think of) would do well to take a page or two from whichever (unidentified) agency authored this remarkable media blitz on behalf of the SLDN.

I link here to the first in the daily series of "Letters to Barak Obama", dated April 26, 2010, from individuals whose lives have been impacted by DADT and their thoughts on its' repeal.

Stories from the Frontlines: Former Air Force Major Mike Almy

Each story is unique; many heart-wrenching; some from little known individuals, and as a consequence, not particularly newsworthy in of themselves; others readily identifiable in their own right, or because of their family; all worthy of our attention on their merit alone.

A "Click" on the appropriate screen during the Flash-presentation on the uppoer portion of the parent web-site's home-page brings up a "Today's letter to First letter" index page, which, for simplicity purposes, I link to below:
