Retired Army Cpt. Jason Crow said during the Democratic National Convention on Thursday that President Barack Obama “did the right thing” by ending Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell.

“President Obama knows that the military is the standard-bearer for American values. It was wrong that men and women I served with could be told they weren’t good enough just because of their sexual orientation. Soldiers who I trusted with my life, and fought alongside with, could be discharged because of who they loved,” Crow said.
