Uniforms OK'd for soldiers at gay parade

Sweden’s Armed Forces have done an about face and decided to now allow soldiers to march in Stockholm’s gay parade while in wearing their uniforms.

“Now we will be able to walk at the head of the line internationally and be a precedent-setting country in the GBT context,” said the Armed Forces’ GBT (gay, bisexual, and transsexual) liaison, Petra Jäppinen, in a statement.
