The Pentagon announced Thursday that transgender people will be allowed to serve openly in the U.S. military, ending one of the last bans on service in the armed forces.
Saying its the right thing to do, Defense Secretary Ash Carter laid out a yearlong implementation plan declaring that Americans who want to serve and can meet our standards should be afforded the opportunity to compete to do so. ....
Under the new policy, by Oct. 1, transgender troops should be able to receive medical care and begin formally changing their gender identifications in the Pentagons personnel system.
And a year from now, he said, the military services will begin allowing transgender individuals to enlist, as long as they meet the required standards and have been stable in their identified gender for 18 months.

So this is what it feels like to live under occupation in a country that’s lost a war.
Private Fancypants’ sex change is on you, American taxpayer!
But you know what, I’m fine with this, just put all the freaks on the front lines, first wave, advance force, bomb detection squad.
The Republic cannot survive another 4 years of “fundamental transformation”. Trump is far from perfect but he is America’s only hope. Any Republican who does not fully support him in the fight against the Democrats illegals-race baiting-welfare-gender bending agenda is a traitor.
I think Trump is an arrogant @$$....but I wouldn't vote for ANYONE ELSE!
He has really surprised me as of late. I really do believe that man cares about the middle class folks. He’z made his and I think he recognizes how the working class in this country have been crushed under the weight of free trade, taxes, regulation, gubbamint intrusion.
I pray he wins.
I am shocked that there are 7,000 in the military already. I was speechless hearing this today on Fox News.
So the Pentagon are going to let mentally ill, emotionally unstable persons throw hand grenades at BCT? Gonna be tough for the DoD to tell parents of the high school track star and valedictorian patriot that their kid was killed by a man wearing lipstick and womens underwear with a grenade.
There are no Christian nations that I’m aware of.
Since this didn’t go through Congress and is based on the wants and needs of a Presidential administration, why can it all not be overturned when a conservative President is elected?
Exactly right.
Nice round number there.
It's a lie.
Just like the homo numbers, to make it seem a fait accompli; silly, you can't round up 20 million illegals, it's impossible...
