Ens. Vernon Berg III, the first Navy officer to admit publicly he is a homosexual, says the Navy Bureau of Personnel has ordered him discharged by Friday.

Berg, a 1974 graduate of the U.S. Naval Academy, said he will appeal the "less than honorable" discharge, which means either a general or dishonorable dismissal.
