The Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Questioning, and Allies Club (I didn&#8217;t make that up&#8230;that&#8217;s really what they call themselves) which I figure has a membership of about eight people, announced their intention to host a &#8220;queer prom&#8221; at which the governor of Vermont will be the key note speaker. So, I&#8217;ve been to several proms in my lifetime, but I&#8217;ve never been to one that had a keynote speaker, so I don&#8217;t know WTF is up with that.<\/p>\n<p>I know quite a few Norwich grads, and since my ROTC detachment was just down the road from them, I helped train a number of their cadets, and I never figured that the school would allow itself to be a political launching pad for people who are trying to make military traditions look like silly clowns with a &#8220;queer prom&#8221;.
