Abstract
This is a progress report for Phase One of a larger research project funded by the Armed Forces Covenant Fund Trust and in partnership with Fighting With Pride.

Following Thematic Analysis of the data, researchers identified seven overarching themes: LGBT+ Identity Struggle; Camouflage; Intense Investigative Process; Extraction, Exclusion, and Loss; Access to Support; Long-Term Impact of Serving During the Ban; Making Amends. Phase Two of this study is now in development.
