I recognize that / is a factor here, and certainly a lot of the other keep votes are either unaware of or blatantly ignoring these policies (argh guys do better!), but a decent amount of coverage discusses how this incident fits into a "changing Navy culture" as http://www.latimes.com/news/nationworld/nation/wire/sc-dc-0105-enterprise-20110104,0,6490253.story gay people will soon be able to serve openly, http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/40889027/ns/us_news-life/ new fields open to women, etc. (http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2011/01/04/AR2011010400376_2.html This article also discusses the incident in the context of other military scandals.) I feel that we can make a reasonably bet that this will be referred to for a while, particularly as DADT repeal is implemented. ''However'', Honors's life story is unnecessary; perhaps it could be stripped out and the article renamed to "Owen Honors incident" or something
