Memorial service Thursday for gay Iraq war veteran
A public memorial service for the soldier who fought “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” by coming out as gay while serving in Iraq will take place in D.C. on Thursday.
The service to honor the life of Army Staff Sergeant Darren Manzella will be held at 2 p.m. on Thursday at St. Johns Episcopal Church, Lafayette Square. The address is 1525 H St., N.W., Washington, D.C. 20005.
In 2007, Manzella came out as gay on “60 Minutes” in protest of the military’s gay ban known as “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” and was expelled under the policy in the next year. President Obama signed legislation in 2010 to repeal “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” and lifted the policy in 2011.

He did more to forever change the military and America's mind set than some fucking lackey key board commando ever will. Now chew on that.
