I'm a gay male, and I was sort of pressured into enlisting in the army. Peer pressure really got to me. I wasn't entirely informed about how life would be different in the Army if I were gay, of course asking those questions would've eliminated me right then and there. I had been on the fence about what I wanted to do with my life and since my enlistment, I teetered away from the Army idea. My question is: If I haven't gone to BT and I leave several months from now, and I tell them that I am gay and that I cannot enlist, will I get a dishonorable discharge? I made this decision too fast so I don't want to hear anything about that. I just want to know if there is any way that I can get out. I don't want to ruin my life and waste tax payers dollars in the process.
