Kelly Holmes is issuing a battle cry to all LGB T military veterans whose lives were ruined under the Forces ban on homosexuality.
The Olympic legend and former soldier – who came out as gay in the Sunday Mirror in June – wants persecuted troops to rise up and answer her “call to action”.
She needs them to give evidence to a landmark independent probe into the impact of a scandal that left thousands humiliated, stripped of honours, discharged or jailed under an archaic law which was only scrapped in 2000.
