This story has some interest in it for me because of the helicopter angle and because I am typed in that particular aircraft. It took some digging, but from what I can find she's a lesbian who came home one night and punched out her significant other during a domestic argument. She failed to report her subsequent arrest to her chain of command and is now in Marine Corps limbo Hell. She'll likely be drummed out of the service due to conduct unbecoming an officer.
So I have a few questions about the nature of something like this. What determines in a lesbian relationship who is the wife and who is the husband? As women (this question stemming from my benighted cis white male world view) wouldn't they both be wives? Do they play rock-paper-scissors (there's a joke in there if you care to look for it) to determine who is the husband any given day or does the weaker one just get stuck doing dishes and laundry because she can't beat up the tougher/meaner one?
On an unrelated note, while watching AFN I have found it incredibly disconcerting to see commercials for LGBT month wherein they play up the whole gay pride thing. It's a major shock to see this when even in civilian television you don't get the whole "I'm here and I'm queer" homo shtick. Social,change, I guess.
Oh, rules.
