I work alongside the British Navy and know quite a few openly gay serving personnel(of both sexes), none have ever mentioned being bullied for their sexuality and some werent the sort to not complain.

Quote:Ever since former president George W. Bush referred to the war on terror as a “crusade” in the days after the September 11 attacks, many have charged that the United States was conducting a holy war, pitting a Christian America against the Muslim world. That perception grew as prominent military leaders such as Lt. Gen. William Boykin described the wars in evangelical terms, casting the U.S. military as the "army of God."
