Tech Sgt. Erwynn Umali is an active duty serviceman in the US Air Force. Will Behrens is a branch manager for a financial firm.
On June 23 of this year they got married, a wonderful moment for any couple and especially so for a gay one.
Oh yeah, they got married at McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst, a joint military base in Wrightstown, N.J. The first time ever a gay couple has been able to get married or engage in a civil union on a military base in the United States.
