Agree with Changeup - while it must have taken courage, it's also a bad idea. I agree with him and his reasons, but have another one I've been thinking about.
Three of the candidates in the debates the other night said if they won they would use executive action, one of the leaders in the polls said "on day one of his presidency", to "UNDO" all of what they considered to be "illegal actions" performed by the government under the current administration. What if that includes don't ask don't tell? I realize it stands as a stretch to think that it could be put back into that box, but in these times, NOTHING any politician does would surprise me, nor should it surprise anyone else. What happens to you then, if DoD says "we're back to don't ask don't tell", but you're already been asked, and you answered? Cargo planes full of rubber dogdoo out of Hong Kong can't be nearly as fun as Top Gun.
