What is your hesitation regarding this deployment?

I have 3,623 hesitations, Sir!

I surveyed the troops, Sir.

And?

And that’s how many of them are racist, or prejudiced toward the LGBT community, and I do not believe I would feel comfortable deploying with them. I believe it would, in fact, harm the cause of war to share a deployment with them, Sir!
