The experiences of nine gay and lesbian veterans are documented in this powerful new film directed by Academy Award® nominee Arthur Dong. Combining declassified documents, rare archival footage, interviews and photographs, Coming Out Under Fire returns back to World War II where the current "don't ask, don't tell" policy originated. Hear the dramatic first-person stories of a group of men and women who volunteered to fight for their country only to be later persecuted, rounded up in witch hunts and labeled as "undesirables."
