*Drag queens Jewels & the Brunchettes*
President Lucifer's destruction of the U.S. military continues.
On August 8, 2013, the Los Angeles Air Force Base (LAAFB) invited a drag
queen musical group, Jewels and the Brunchettes, to perform as part of its
celebration of Diversity Day.

Todd Starnes reports for Fox News
Radio<http://radio.foxnews.com/toddstarnes/top-stories/air-force-base-hosts-drag-queens.html>that
military personnel at LAAFB were treated to a Diversity Day musical
performance featuring three individuals dressed in drag.
The drag queen performance sparked outrage among some airmen who called the
performance “totally offensive and inappropriate.”
One airman told Fox News he was troubled when three individuals dressed in
drag began performing on the air base: “I am really surprised that this
happened on a military installation. I get that people want to be able to
have committed relationships with members of the same sex, but this crossed
the line.”
The airman said it was ironic that *the Air Force is cracking down on
Christians being able to openly share their faith but they would allow
individuals to dress in drag: “We can’t even have Bibles on our desks. This
base is not a platform for political agendas. It is a military
installation. The display was totally inappropriate and offensive.”*
Photographs of the event (see below) show an individual wearing a giant wig
performing to a sparse crowd underneath the American flag. It’s unclear
whether the individuals in high heels and form-fitting dresses are members
of the Air Force.

Diversity
Day1]<http://fellowshipofminds.files.wordpress.com/2013/08/diversity-day1.jpg>In
response to Starnes' email, the U.S. Air Force issued a
statement<http://radio.foxnews.com/toddstarnes/top-stories/air-force-says-drag-acts-symbolize-gay-pride.html>confirming
that the LAAFB Diversity Day was meant to “foster equality and
diversity in the workplace” and featured 8 "cultural groups," including a
well-known drag queen group, *Jewels and the Brunchettes*, who were invited
to perform because drag is a “symbol of gay pride and unity."
*Peggy Hodge, a spokesperson for the USAF Office of Public Affairs*, said
in the written statement:
“Drag acts to this day represent the struggle for freedom and equality of
the LGBT community, while at the same time providing a deep-rooted
historical form of entertainment for the LGBT culture. Drag queen acts are
historically one of the main forms of entertainment in the LGBT culture,
having its roots in the earliest of days of the gay rights movement.
[Individuals dressing in drag harkens to the days of the Stonewall riots
when a gay bar was raided by police.] What followed was the brutal beating
and jailing of several men dressed as women. This is commonly accepted as
the start of the gay rights movement in the United States. [As a result of
the Stonewall riots] the wearing and performing in drag became a symbol of
gay pride and unity.”
The military said the drag queen group did not include any members of the
Air Force.

The Diversity Day celebration also featured ethnic and LGBT booths;
performances by an Irish dance troupe, a Polynesia entertainment group,
Japanese drummers, Native American dancers, Hispanic folk music, and
cloggers; as well as a speech by *Brigadier General Tammy Smith*, the *first
openly gay general*
<http://www.nytimes.com/2012/08/13/us/army-woman-is-first-openly-gay-officer-promoted-to-flag-rank.html?_r=0>after
the Obama regime's repeal of “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell.”
An Army spokesman told Fox News that Smith was speaking from an outline and
did not have a transcript of her remarks, but *The
Blaze*<http://www.theblaze.com/stories/2013/08/10/totally-offensive-and-inappropriate-military-base-reportedly-hosts-drag-queens-during-diversity-day-celebration/>obtained
a partial video of her speech where she asked military personnel
to be accepting of diverse cultures and lifestyles.
