Hero for today: Cadet Katherine A. Miller

Katherine A. Miller is leaving West Point to attend Yale University because of Don't Ask, Don't Tell, a discriminatory policy affecting LGBT people. "I can't be closeted anymore. I need to be open with myself and open with others about who I am."
She was in the top 1% of her class at West Point. DADT has resulted in the discharge of 13,500 service members, and now the discriminatory policy is causing young people in whom the military has invested to leave before doing service.

Wake up, America.
