Dan Choi Tells More on NPR’s “Tell Me More”

Listen to this 12 minute NPR Segment. Dan Choi explains why telling the truth is so important for West Pointers.  Dan points out that when President Obama met with gay rights leaders last week, he asked them to “judge me by my actions, not by my words.”  And yet, the very next day, 1LT Choi was judged by his words - for telling the truth - and his actions, years of honorable service and sacrifice, meant nothing.
