I truly admire this young man. He is paving the way to change for others that will come after him. Baby steps are *always* needed for change and understanding. Acceptance.
Geez, people say all these things about 'hearing' commands but, from what I know of the army, being in combat, a lot of it is done by hand signals. Why can't they do ASL signals so that Deaf *AND* hearing can fight for their country if that's what they want to do?
I cannot imagine a dream and passion of being to serve your country, to be proud to do so, and be denied simply because you have to hear? Oy!
