"And, really, do you honestly believe there was any concern for Jews and homosexuals?"

In 1940's America?  Nah....but our history books would have us believe otherwise.

Matthew, thank you for the correction, yes, it is paying men/women different rates to do the same job that is illegal. Something that almost bankrupted Birmingham Council when this hit them.

In reply to Mr. Byrne, I do not know how homosexuals were treated in the military during and after the war. But from friends and relatives, I have heard that Jews were treated like shit, same as always, same as all over in that era.
