A Gay Airman's Story: Rolling Out of the Deep
A viral video accidentally exposed an airman who now must slowly come out to his unit — and the world. Follow along as he realizes what to do next.

You may be one of the millions who saw a viral YouTube video showing a group of airmen covering Adele's hit "Rolling in the Deep." It just so happens that the guy who posted the video is on the verge of coming out to the world.

The airman who uploaded the video, using the name AreYouSuprised, had also been keeping a vlog on YouTube about being gay in the military, chronicling his delicate coming-out process. Soon enough, his military colleagues started to figure out that the guy posting the videos of the band of singing airmen was also the guy posting the intimate (yet mostly faceless) vlog posts.

1. Enjoyed the video but even more hearing the Areyousurprised vlog....
Seems like a very well grounded young man. Look forward to seeing his face someday.
