Poll: 73% of younger veterans would support ‘Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell’ repeal

[Ardent15]

"A survey commissioned by Vet Voice Foundation concluded that a vast majority of recent US military veterans would accept the repeal of the controversial "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy.

The poll was done by Lake Research Partners and American Viewpoint, Inc. and asked 510 Iraq and Afghanistan war veterans of their "personal opinion" if the government allowed gays to serve openly in the military.

Of those surveyed, 73 percent said gay service in the military would be acceptable. Of those, 42 percent said it would be acceptable without reservations and 31 percent said it would be acceptable even though they would not personally like it.

Only 25 percent said they would find it unacceptable."
