'Don't Ask' Policy Hits Female Soldiers Hardest

I don't understand the "don't ask; don't tell" policy. Are people being discharged for asking/accusing? Is the first part just being conveniently forgotten?

So how come they're being discharged? Is an accusation or its investigation not equivalent to asking?

Because they *are* gay...

....and respectively, no and no.

If you are guilty of it, you are discharged.
