Gay_Troops_to_Hold_Las_Vegas_Convention

Gays, lesbians, and bisexuals who are presently in active in all branches of the military will have an Armed Forces Leadership Summit on October 13-16, 2011 (Thurs. to Sun.) in Las Vegas, NV. The summit will be located at the New York New York Las Vegas Hotel & Casino.1 The convention weekend costs between $150 to $300.1 It’s sponsored by “OutServe, an underground network of more than 3,000 gay troops” 2. The theme will be: "What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas." 2

Hopefully, the Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell (DADT) federal law will be history by the time the summit begins in October. The training for the military is suppose to be finished by August 15, there will be a 60 day period after that, and then DADT should be fully repealed sometime in October.
