I was in the Air Force for 7 years back in the late 90's and early 2000's and honestly, heteronormativity was the culture. I knew many gay service members and they were deeply closeted. I'm bi, and didn't tell anyone. I personally knew two people discharged under DADT. Trans folks weren't even whispered about.
The military has changed so much in the last 20 years and in very good ways. No one should have to hide who they are.
