Lt. Col. Fehrenbach: A Role Model for Military Service
I am profoundly grateful for the courage and professionalism of Lt. Col. Victor Fehrenbach. He epitomizes the character and commitment we expect from America's military leaders, and gives living and persuasive testimony to the injustice and harm of "Don't Ask, Don't Tell." He is a role model, not only for gay and lesbian troops, but for all who hold sacred the core values of integrity, service and excellence. His discharge will not strengthen our military, but will embolden those who would advance a culture of supremacy and bigotry. This highly decorated career officer should be honored for his patriotism, valued for his proven skills and unlimited potential, and retained as a mission essential and combat ready aviator. Lt. Col. Fehrenbach does his country proud!

Sir,
You said it. Now I wish they would let him do his job. He’s a damn fine pilot. We need him in the skies over Afghanistan, not on Capitol Hill.
