Lt Col Julie Glover is a Physician Assistant in the U.S. Air Force, holds a Doctorate in Emergency Medicine, has deployed thrice, and has held a number of leadership roles. I knew her back when she was Capt Glover (!) and we were stationed together in northern Italy. We bonded over our love of cats, softball, and LGBTQ rights. In this episode, Lt Col Glover discusses the impact that repeal of Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell had on her ‘outness’ to military colleagues, her experiences disclosing her sexual orientation to military medical providers and her bosses, as well as the process of reckoning with negative religious messaging about same-sex desire. She also talks about her long-time girlfriend and what it’s been like to be in a same-sex relationship in the military. Lt Col Glover is one of those people who is constantly winning awards, earning more and more degrees, and remains startlingly humble. (That last sentence would make her very uncomfortable.)
