DoD LGBT Pride Month 2015 (DoD website)
The Dept. of Defense biography for Kurta reads like an impressive career: 30-plus years of military service in the U.S. Navy, beginning with graduating from the U.S. Naval Academy in 1981 and ending in 2013 when he retired as a Rear Admiral. He began his Pentagon assignment in 2014.
Yet it was another watchdog website, Christian Fighter Pilot, that noticed in June when
Kurta announced support for LGBT Pride Month from the Dept. of Defense, apparently reacting to silence from the Commander in Chief.
Kurta represented the Defense Department in June when he spoke at the annual "Pentagon Recognizing Pride" event, The Washington Blade, a homosexual-rights newspaper, reported in a June 12 story.

Kurta applauded the "diversity" in the U.S. armed forces, including "diversity of thought" and "diversity of ability."
"This is an unacceptable nominee," says Donnelly, "because Anthony
Kurta has always been in league with the LGBT faction. So this should have been considered a firing event, not a cause for a promotion."
Other speakers at the Pentagon event included a lesbian Air Force major general, a homosexual Democratic congressman, and a former deputy assistant secretary of defense, who is transgender.

Speaking for herself and other conservatives, Donnelly says
they expected President Donald Trump to "drain the swamp" at the Dept. of Defense, which means ending political correctness that has eroded morale, and finally readying the armed forces to win wars, after eight years of Obama.
Kurta's promotion, she says, sends a troubled message for the goals of our armed forces during Trump's presidency.
