petuated by Maj. Gen. Clark simply made it an
unsafe place for servicemembers.”
The Navy’s discharge numbers increased
slightly in 2000, totaling 358 compared to
314 in 1999. A total of 81 of the discharges
were from Charleston, S.C., where the
Nuclear Power Training Unit and Command
are stationed.
“The numbers from Charleston are alarm
ing,” Osburn said. “While we do not know the
precise reason so many Navy personnel were
discharged from that installation, we do know
that servicemembers come out for a reason.
Those reasons most often include unchecked
harassment, inadequate training and a failure of
leadership.”
The Air Force discharged 177 servicemem
bers in 2000, down dramatically from 352 in
1992. Most significant were discharges from
Lackland Air Force Base, which dropped from
221 in 1999 to 37 in 2000 after leaders were
asked to improve training on the policy.
Marine Corps discharges increased slightly,
from 97 in 1999 to 104 in 2000. The Coast
Guard discharged 19 servicemembers, up from
12 in 1999.
An overwhelming majority of U.S. citi
zens—72 percent—favor the right of lesbians,
gays and bisexuals to serve in the U.S. armed
forces, according to a Gallup poll released
June 4. Only 23 percent say they should not
be hired.
