Forced Out plot

Although homosexuality was decriminalized in England and Wales in 1967, it remained illegal to be homosexual in the British military until 2000. Over those 33 years, thousands of gay men and women faced intrusive investigations and interrogations by the military police before being forced to resign or dishonorably discharged simply because of their sexuality. Many of them were subsequently imprisoned, given criminal records, had their medals stripped and their service pensions withdrawn, all by the institutions to which they had given their lives.
