Kurt Schlichter nails it:
“Of course, the troops always know it. We knew everything about everyone we were with. Straight or gay, fine, do your job, we’re a team. But you can’t have a guy who is into ridiculous fetishes and practicing them with other people in the freaking Army. It doesn’t work. You must be a model of propriety to command, focused on winning wars and protecting your troops instead of fantasizing about sexy times at the Westminster Dog Show.”
