Top General says arse tunnelling is 'vital to operational effectiveness'.


Army's top general makes history by addressing conference on homosexuality

The head of the British Army has made military history by addressing a conference on homosexuality, The Sunday Telegraph can reveal. General Sir Richard Dannatt, the chief of the general staff, told members of the Army-sponsored Fourth Joint Conference on Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transexual Matters that homosexuals were welcome to serve in the Army.

In a speech to the conference in London on Thursday, – the first of its kind by any Army chief – Gen Sir Richard said that respect for gays, lesbian, bi-sexual and trans-sexual officers and soldiers was now "a command responsibility" and was vital for "operational effectiveness".
