Two Snaps Up For The Coast Guard Academy

Six months have passed since the end of "don't ask-don't-tell." Now, gay students at military academies are no longer shy about themselves. In December, students at the Coast Guard Academy formed a group called Spectrum, a gay pride organization. A similar group with the same name forms in New York at West Point, the Army's main academy. Participants say they are treated no differently than anyone else.The phenomenon is also occurring at private military academies. Cadets at Norwich University in Vermont stage a gay pride week.
