On May 2nd, 2010 United States Veterans who have been affected by "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" told their stories in front of the White House and demanded that President Obama immediately include DADT repeal language in his Defense Authorization transmittals to Congress.
Speakers include:
Lt. Dan Choi, Capt Jim Pietrangelo II, Alex Nicholson, Lt. Robin Chaurasiya, Cpl. Evelyn Thomas, Spc Jarrod Chlapowski, Capt. Tanya Domi, Cpl. Brett Edward Stout, Sgt Justin Elzie, Aubrey Sarvis

And if you are a LGBT Veteran and want to participate in the project = me coming to your house for an hour or two- to chat, photograph and record your story - please contact me. I want to include as many LGBT Veterans as possible.
