The repeal of DADT in the US military was such a non-event that these non-events keep making the news:

Two graduates of West Point are set to become the first men to marry each other at the storied military academy. Larry Choate III, class of 2009, will marry Daniel Lennox, class of 2007, on Saturday at the U.S. Military Academy’s Cadet Chapel.

Homosexual women previously did so, though the “first” event wasn’t as newsworthy as the second.

United Church of Christ Chaplain Cynthia Lindenmeyer, a 1990 West Point grad, reportedly officiated.  Lindenmeyer is a former Army chaplain.

When a Christian servicemember tried to complain about the December event to a West Point chaplain, he was apparently almost discharged as a for the expression of his religious beliefs.
