Direct the Department of Defense to automatically change the DD214’s of service members discharged for being gay.

The repeal of “Don’t Ask Don’t Tell” left separated service members seeking to have their DD 214 discharge papers corrected with a cumbersome, complicated and time consuming administrative remedy. This remedy afforded by statute requires a veteran Honorably separated for a “Homosexual Act” or “Homosexual Admission” to write a lengthy legal brief to accompany an application for relief and then wait for the relief to be granted by the respective Board for Correction of Military Records. Veteran’s discharged Honorably for homosexuality are automatically presumed to not have any “aggravating factors” in their discharge and therefore should be worthy of a simplified process. Streamline the process by statute, executive order or BCMR policy; it saves everyone time and money!
