It will be curious to see once Biden’s weak diplomacy gets the bullets flying again forcing our troops back in harm’s way, just how many transgenders will be on the front lines.

The short answer is no for enlisted troops. Officers can resign their commission but not necessarily their service obligation.

In Iraq during 2004, some convoys I was with would stop for a break, with male soldiers relieving themselves downwind, and female soldiers squatting a short distance away in the desert (no trees or hills to go behind). Soldiers took turns with guard duty during the stop.

She’s a recruit. It could fall under “inability to adapt to military life. “

And women should not be soldiers.

Now that units are mixed the males and females will be naked together at times, for example outside shower trucks that don’t have anything except shower heads sticking out the sides to the outdoors.

Crossing water naked and putting your clothes on after crossing and just ordinary walking around naked, both indoors and out.

How many were KIA/MIA riding up and down roads? Why no choppers or cargo planes

Women effectively voted for this by voting to protect access to legal abortions. Now younger women are dealing with the consequences.

“And women should not be soldiers.”

My military record, awards, decorations and promotions say otherwise. :)

But, I DO understand your point and you’re welcome to it. I would NOT recommend today’s military for either young men or young women.
