Paperback. Zustand: Good. Winner of 2018 Lambda Book Award (Bisexual Nonfiction) What makes a pink-haired queer raise his hand to enlist in the military just as the nation is charging into war? In his memoir, Out of Step, Anthony Moll tells the story of a working-class bisexual boy running off to join the army in the midst of two wars and the "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" era.  Set against the backdrop of hypermasculinity and sexual secrecy, Moll weaves a queer coming-of-age story. Out of Step traces Moll's development through his military service, recounting how the army both breaks and builds relationships, and what it was like to explore his queer identity while also coming to terms with his role in the nation's ugly foreign policy.
