US compensates LGBTQ+ veterans discharged under 'Don't Ask, Don't Tell'
Briefly

"Brave LGBTQ+ Americans have long volunteered to serve the country they love. Some of these troops were administratively separated from military service under the now-repealed Don't Ask, Don't Tell policy."
"Under president Biden's leadership, the Department of Defense has taken extraordinary steps to redress the harms done by Don't Ask, Don't Tell and other policies on these former service members."
"With an estimated more than 13,000 military personnel discharged under the regulation since 1993, it’s crucial that we help those affected reclaim their dignity and earn back their honorable status."
"The outreach campaign conducted helped identify 851 veterans who had been discharged dishonourably, showcasing the recent efforts to address historical injustices in military policies."
