Colonel Margaret Cammermeyer, you should know, was played by Glenn Close in the 1995 movie Serving In Silence, which tracked her successful court battle to be reinstated to the Washington National Guard after her 1989 disclosure that she is a lesbian. Cammermeyer now serves on a civilian advisory committee to the Department of Defense after retiring from the National Guard in 1997 as one of the military's very few pre-DADT openly gay members.
