Gay soldier gets $135,000 in back salary from Army
Sergeant works to overturn Pentagon banning
The Associated Press
SEATTLE — A soldier who was discharged because he is homosexual says that the Army has agreed to give him about $135,000 in back pay and full retirement benefits in a settlement that concludes years of court battles.
Sgt. 1st Class Perry Watkins of Tacoma said he planned to keep working to get the Pentagon ban on homosexuals and bisexuals over-
"Any able-bodied person who gives to their country deserves to be judged on the quality of their performance." Watkins said.
But an Army representative, Capt. Barbara Goodno, said yesterday that the Army's policy against homosexuals bisexuals remained unchanged.
She declined to answer other questions.
The American Civil Liberties Union of Washington, which helped
Watkins in the case, said yesterday that the agreement provided that Watkings would retire Feb. 1 with an honorable discharge. Also, he was promoted from the rank of staff sergeant to sergeant first class, retrospective to June 1, 1985.
Watkins will have full benefits in retirement, including the rights to take military flights and to stay in military housing.
Watkins, 42, would have been eligible for a full Army pension in 1988 after 20 years, but the Army gave him an honorable discharge in 1984 when he was 56 years old. Lewis in Tacoma and had four years left on his most recent enlistment.
The 9th U.S. Circuit Court or Appeals, based in San Francisco, ruled in May that the Army must allow Watkins to serve out his emilitation before he could韧 harden emilited him in the past knowing he was a homosexual.
Watkins, who was drafted, said
that in filling out a pre-induction medical form, he answered "yes" to a question asking if he had homosexual tendencies. Later, three Army investigations were initiated after he told superiors about his homosexuality, but after each investigation he was allowed to re-enlist.
Watkins' legal battle ended in November when the U.S. Supreme Court let the 9th circuit ruling stand.
Watkins said he doubted that the courts would reverse the Pentagon's ban on homosexuals and bisexuals.
Defense Department regulations prohibited the enlistment or re-enlistment of homosexuals or bisexuals throughout Watkins' service. New regulations added in 1881 required the discharge of soldiers whose homosexuality was discovered while they were in the military.
"One of the biggest waste issues they (the military) have is that they're throwing out people who are perfectly qualified," he said.

The Associated Press
ANKARA, Turkey — Gunmen killed the chief adviser to the prime minister's office yesterday, and a statement found nearby claimed by a leftist group involved in recent terrorist officials reported.

Sayin, 64, was rushed to a hospital and pronounced dead on arrival, the day before.
Authorities said they found statements at the scene from a separatist Kurdish organization, the Kurdistan National Liberation Organization,
and an underground communist group, Marxist Dev Sol.
A senior Turkish security officer, speaking on condition of anonymity, said that investigators were looking into the Kurdish connection and the situation they had received indicated that Dev Sol might be responsible.
Later, Dev Sol claimed responsibility for the killing in a telephone call to the垦abul newspaper Miliyet. The caller called the assassinated officer "the worst enemy of the Kurdish people" and a "fascist."
Kurds make up more than 10 million of the Turkish population of 57 million. The main Turkish Kurdish group fighting for an independent state is the Kurdish Labor Party or PKK, a Marxist group.
