Pentagon considers giving soldiers in same-sex relationships 10 days of leave to marry

Via Billy "It was better when they kicked them out."


 

The Pentagon is considering giving military personnel in same-sex relationships up to 10 days of leave so they can travel to states where they can legally marry, according to a Department of Defense document obtained by the Associated Press. The proposal is an effort to deal with the extension of benefits to same-sex partners that aren't in legal marriages.

The Department of Defense is on track with plans to give same-sex spouses of military members access to healthcare, housing and other benefits by its end-of-August deadline.
