German government pay compensation to gay soldiers

The German Government decided yesterday to give every homosexual soldier, who was  discriminated against because of his/her sexual orientation, the sum of €3,000. 

The compensation will be given to all soldiers, whether troops in the Bundeswehr (West German Army) or NVA (East German Army) troops.

Until 2000, Bundeswehr policy held that putting gay soldiers in positions of authority would lead to poor morale and could even pose a security risk.
