| Summary |
The secret and surprising story of homosexuality in the British armed forces : During World War II, more than a quarter of a million of the 6 million men drafted into the armed services were gay, a fact conveniently overlooked as the need for recruits was so great. In the present day, when gays are banned in the British military, little has changed in terms of prejudice, discrimination and the pressure on gay men and women to live double lives |
