Out of Annapolis begins at 1:15 at the Cinema Theater.

This documentary once again brings to the fore the many issues surrounding the "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy.

Excellent! Very educational. An arsenal for repealing DADT.

Great film. Well documented. Not overly sad or too much hatred toward USNA.

It was really excellent. How awful to have SO much stress in one's life. Things have to change NOW. How great to see and hear such courageous patriotic young people who defended the USA.

Incredible. As a mid I was kicked out in 1988 for being gay. I have since dated several gay officers and USNA grads -- seeing a collection of true stories on the successful lives of others really makes me wish I fought harder to stay in. Great job. This should help convince Obama to push hard for repeal. Sometimes it's important to take a stand for what's right.

An outstanding resource for the campaign against Don't Ask, Don't Tell -- and the response for open acceptance in the military branches.

Out of Annapolis -- I identified with this film. I served 25 years in the US Army I could relate to the fear and isolation of being a lesbian in the US Army. Fortunately, I was never investigated.

It was an eye opener for me to learn how positive the graduates about their service experience despite the constant fear and stress.

Exceptional documentary, for it maintains real human interest all the way through. The statistics, the self-discovery, the coming to terms with identity is a totally hostile environment well illustrates that identity is not a choice -- not the result of an agenda. It is facing the truth which frees.
