Gay Keith is not a brigadier general. He is not even an active duty retired army officer. He spent his years as a reservist solely in the state of California military bureaucracy. <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.veteransequality.org\/learn\/about_us\/advisory_board\/keith_kerr_bio.htm\">His bio is published<\/a> in the gay organization dedicated to voiding the &#8220;don&#8217;t ask don&#8217;t tell&#8221; policy.<\/p>\n<p>For details. You must note that Kerr was retired from the inactive army reserves in the grade of colonel. With the exception of a few years served on active duty as a lieutenant his entire service was in the reserves in California. He was placed in retired reserve status with the California National Guard reserves and promoted to brigadier general in that federally unrecognized status.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>It damn sure is tough to be a lying sack o&#8217;shit in the age of the internet, ain&#8217;t it?
