11. if these three are the same three, they asked to be discharged
If they want to stay in the service and are being forced out, I agree that is unconscionable. But if they asked to be discharged while they still could be, that's another story.

Whether or not somebody should be allowed to use the discriminatory practices of the military against itself in order to get out of a voluntary commitment is certainly a moral question worth discussing. It sounds like a bad idea to me, but I wouldn't call it vicious.
