VIDEO | Historic same-sex navy homecoming first kiss

By on December 22, 2011

Petty Officer 2nd Class Marissa Gaeta, gave her girlfriend of two years, Petty Officer 3rd Class Citlalic Snell a historic kiss at Joint Expeditionary Base Little Creek in Virginia Beach, Va., Wednesday after Gaeta’s ship returned from 80 days at sea. In the navy tradition, sailers enter a raffle for the ability to be first to give their loved one a homecoming kiss. This is the first same-sex kiss in that tradition.
