Charles Moskos


Charles C. Moskos is a sociologist of the United States Military and a professor at Northwestern University. Described as the nation's "most influential military sociologist" by the Wall Street Journal (where his byline occasionally appears over op-ed pieces), Moskos has long been a source for reporters from the New York Times, Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, Chicago Tribune, USA Today and other periodicals. He is perhaps most well known as the author of the military's "don't ask, don't tell" policy, which governs the conduct of homosexual servicemembers.
