In filling out a pre induction medical form he marked a a yes to a question that asked if he had homosexual tendencies. He was inducted anyway from 1967 through 1980, he was the subject of three army investigations. Each one was sparked by Watkins telling a Superior about his homosexuality but after each investigation he was allowed to re enlist. Watkins served two Tours of duty in Korea and subsequently was stationed at fort Lewis near Tacoma. He was allowed to re enlist a total of three times. In 1981, the army adopted a new regulation requiring the discharge of All homosexuals. A review Board in 1982 voted to discharge Watkins but before the discharge orders were issued a Federal judge barred the army from taking such action.
