HOMOSEXUALITY IN THE MILITARY When it comes to the controversial topic of homosexuality in the military there are two extremely fascinating sides to the story. Although there are many strong arguments in regard to this subject‚ I have chosen the ones which I find most compelling.

The military compensation system‚ like many others‚ is a multilayer package comprised of direct compensation‚ indirect compensation‚ and additional considerations not afforded to most civilian sector employees (Bricka‚ 2016).
