USNA Out

Our sister school LGBT Alumni group has been slammed with visits to their website ever since the press release on 3/17 (USMA Founder's Day) stating that they are here and queer and ready to take charge when DADT falls. Lt Daniel Choi (USMA '03) appeared on the Rachel Maddow show on MSNBC two nights in a row.

As of 3/20, Knights Out have had over 8,000 unique visitors to their website. The attention that they have garnered has thrown them into the lead for "initial members" -- now 46 members, exceeding the 29 of USNA Out and the 14 of the Blue Alliance at their inceptions combined! This phenomena could probably be rephrased as "West Point is now the gayest of all the federal service academies."

Unlike the usual, we wish the Knights Out the best of luck in achieving their goals. For more about the Knights Out, visit their website at http://knightsout.org.
