On Veterans Day, it’s a time to give thanks especially to those veterans that are ignored due to discrimination.

Since our community is often under counted it is a conservative estimate that at least 10-20% or 2.3 - 4.6 million veterans are Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender (LGBT) people. All have served this nation well and have received little to no credit for their vast contributions to national value.

We are eternally grateful for their service to our country…

DOD FED GLOBE completely supports the LCR appeal to end the US ban on openly LGB soldiers immediately. LCR filed their brief in the 9th US Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco yesterday. We concur and commend this action!



LCR is absolutely right that it is unconstitutional for Congress to allow the military to keep the ban while it trains troops to deal with the change after lawmakers have…

Pentagon Not Tracking LGBT

The Pentagon's spin masters are at it again. In the above link is the latest lie/ distortion an article from "Stripes."

They act like they are doing us a favor by not counting our community. This is more along the lines of re-engineering the DADT mandated closet.

The USA military got done within 1 month; conquered Grenada, threw Iraq out of Kuwait, and provided the training on sexual harassment from the tailhook scandal. Knowing how fast the DOD can move this Repeal DADT certification effort should have already been signed, sealed, and delivered.

Most important is desensitivity training and DOD FED GLOBE has provided it for free to the Department of Defense and world.

The DOD is intentionally making repeal sound more…

The LCR lawsuit will stop immediately the illegal unconstitutional mandate that LGB Service Members go into the closet. It is the best solution. It will restore our civil rights of "Freedom of Speech," "Protection from self incrimination," and "Equality clause."

Historically the Department of Defense has an unwritten policy/ rule that excludes LGBT area from its entire diversity program for all employees including the civilians. It has however, spread significant stereotyping and…

• Finalize changes in related regulations and policies & get clearer definitions on benefits

From the DOD FED GLOBE Board

We want to thank all of the you that: pressured politicians, lobbied, protested, rallied, marched, and shared stories of why it is important to rid this society of Don't Ask Don't Tell Don't Pursue (DADT).

These were acts of true…

The SPLC is an American nonprofit that exposes “Hate Groups.” It also creates a map of where the Hate groups are. This year SPLC exposed 18 Anti-Gay Groups and Their Propaganda. We really appreciate the SPLC and the fact that they included groups such as the National Organization for Marriage (NOM).…

Reality is that our 2 major party political system is dysfunctional bringing out the worst in all participants. It is just a barbaric contest with society as the biggest loser.

To get equality we need to operate completely nonpartisan and work across all alignments. This means not…

This decision prevents the Department of Defense from enforcing or applying the policy and orders the military to…

The Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender (LGBT) people are not at fault for how badly society treats us.

It is the society that commits blatant acts of harassment, creates legalized injustices, and allows hate crimes/ murders to continue with little to no action that is at fault. …
