Chelsea Manning to remain on active duty in Army and receive health care after prison release
Chelsea Manning, the transgender U.S. soldier convicted of espionage, will remain on active duty and be eligible for health care benefits after her release from prison, the Army said.
Manning, who was known as Bradley and underwent hormone treatment behind bars, will remain a private in the Army, have access to commissaries and continue to receive health care benefits, but will not be paid, an Army spokesman told USA Today.
“Pvt. Manning is statutorily entitled to medical care while on excess leave in an active duty status, pending final appellate review,” the spokesman said.
The Army declined to say what post she’ll be assigned and who she’ll report to.

Why has this piece of dog$#!+ not been given its well deserved dishonorable discharge?
In the past traitors would be hanged. Today they are given
a sex change, health benefits after serving a joke of a jail sentence.
The world has lost it’s damn mind!
How in the F*** does that work?
When I was in, Drunk Driving was enough to get you discharged.
Who makes these decisions?
And you know what really ticks me off? When it is released from prison, the left and the MSM will prop it up as a hero, just watch.
As Taggert would say........ “Ditto”
hmmm- new policy must be “If you are gay or trans and commit treason, you keep your job and/or health benefits once you are released from prison”
how far we’ve come
Speaking of lying, traitorous, sexually confused pieces of garbage, whatever happened to Bergdahl?
Evidently not the commander-in-chief.
It sure has!
What appellate review? It received a presidential pardon. The courts can't overrule that. Cut it lose and let it fend for itself.
This country is done.
WHY?! He should have been executed or rot for life in prison. And we should be referring to him by his real gender and name.
I believe this creature had its sentence COMMUTED and it wasn’t pardoned.
This has to be fake news trolling for outraged conservative head explosions.
Bergdahl
Chuck Schumer will demand he be head of FBI.
/s today, /insanity tomorrow
He needs to be found hanging in his cell, like the football guy, a few weeks ago.
And it was given a DISHONORABLE DISCHARGE. Why does it even have an army ID to allow it through a security gate?
