He also added that “good flight nurses are hard to find.” The resultant lawsuit led the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals to rule in Witt’s favor in 2008, though this latest ruling impacts only Witt’s discharge, it has already resonated among gay groups throughout the country. ]]> http://floridaagenda.com/2010/09/30/court-orders-air-force-to-reinstate-lesbian-nurse/feed/ 0
