Dr. Aaron Belkin (Palm Center) and Col Gary Packard (US Air Force) will share their journey in the years leading to the repeal of Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell. In 2010, Col Packard was assigned to the Pentagon to study the impact of repeal on the U.S. military, where he led the team responsible for developing the support plan for implementation. In addition, they will share their research on the impact of repeal and discuss why they believe it has been a "non-event" for the U.S. military.
