Military.com: "Group May Sue U.S. Air Force Academy | Associated Press | April 30, 2005
DENVER - A national group that monitors the separation of church and state says it may sue the Air Force Academy, claiming the school allows evangelical Christians to harass cadets who do not share their faith.
'This is the most significant, systemwide example of religious discrimination I have seen in a military setting. Every cadet should be treated as a first-class citizen but instead those who are not evangelical Christians have a lower status,' said Rev. Barry Lynn, executive director of Americans United for Separation of Church and State.
Lynn's group said it conducted a two-month investigation that included contacting about 15 cadets and staff, and has sent a report to Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld."
