OutServe Community,

I remember a time I sat in my barracks room at West Point, 
desperately searching for evidence for that other gays and
 lesbians in the military existed, while looking nervously over 
my shoulder to make sure my roommates didn’t see me. 
 I know that many recipients of this message who are
 actively-serving LGBT military personnel have had

similar experiences of paranoia, fear, and loneliness as 
a result of the “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” (DADT) policy. 
Although repeal does not take place until certification
 later this year, today I am writing to tell you that these 
times are officially over.

I am proud to announce the release of OutServe Magazine,

 a precedent setting new publication, which will begin appear 
on military posts across the country on a regular, bi-monthly
 basis. Gay service members will have to look no further to
 know that they are not alone.
This not only symbolizes the repeal of DADT and the subsequent 
end of our silence, but for heterosexual service members the 
magazine will help to build acceptance of gays and lesbians in the 
military, reduce the stigma associated with us, and begin 
deconstructing negative stereotypes that divide us rather than
 unite us.  In the future, service members, gay or straight, will 
peruse the magazine in waiting rooms as casually as they pick
 up The Military Times, and they will finally come to realize what
 we’ve said all along: being gay is no big deal.  

To spread the truth about gay and lesbian service members and 

to keep this magazine in print, we need your help. If interested
 in advertising or contributing, please email news@outserve.org 
for more information. For all other contributions, including the
 opportunity to setup a recurring monthly donation, please visit http://outserve.org/donate/
