Can you tell me the army's policy for gay people enlisting in the service?
user
I’m not very good at providing information about the military or political groups, and I’m also not sure what you mean by “army.”  In general, I can do some research for you but it will take some time.  If you want help, let me know, or you can just try asking me directly later on.

The policy currently allows gay men to enlist.

Okay. And why was the "don't ask don't tell," policy in use for so long in the army?
user
I don't know. Sorry!

"Don’t ask, don't tell" is an abbreviation for the policy, which allows people in the military to say they are gay, without being fired from the army, unless they are discovered to actually be gay.
