Publisher Cut Gay Storyline From From Here To Eternity
Kaylie Jones, daughter of author James Jones: "My father agreed to eliminate a certain number of F-words - in part because there was a question whether the US postal system would even deliver the book to stores because of its 'salacious' nature - but there was another battle he was waging with his publisher. Apparently Scribner's had a 'don't ask don't tell' policy about depicting homosexuality in the Army." The Daily Beast 11/10/09
