Synopsis "Serving in Silence? Australian Lgbt Servicemen and Women (in English)"
“To put service before self in our Nation’s name is the essence of being a member of our Defence Force. Such commitment is to be respected and honoured. Yet, for too long, our LGBT personnel served in silence. This book gives voice to men and women who served in the face of prejudice and discrimination. It is an affirmation of how Australia and its Defence Force are changing for the better.” ––Lt. General David Morrison, former Chief of Army and 2016 Australian of the Year Most people have heard of the United States’ infamous “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” policy, yet few know about Australia’s own history of LGBT military service. In Serving in Silence? lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender servicemen and women share their personal stories for the first time. The book explores the emotional stress they experienced hiding their sexuality or gender identity under official bans, as well as the challenges facing those who have served openly in the last 25 years.
