Excellent!

Saw this many years ago! Very touching then and it's very touching now! Hopefully we've come a long way and this is still not happening. I was a teenager then and I thought it was so unfair to take away her rights all because she was lesbian !? She had worked hard and was dedicated in serving her country. Of course this movie was before the don't ask don't tell policy.
