The Navy’s “first kiss” has made history. The first gay kiss took place in Virginian Beach this week, when Marissa Gaeta of Pacerville, Calif., descended from the USS Oak Hill as it arrived in port in Va. Beach and shared a quick kiss with her partner, Citlalic (SEET-lah-leek) Snell of Los Angeles. The crowd screamed and waved Navy flags around them. Both women are fire controlmen in the Navy. They met at training school and have been dating for two years.
