The saga of Bradley/Chelsea Manning was the focus point that crystallized the thinking on how “transgenders” fit into the whole picture of military service.
High maintenance does not win wars, with the equipment or in the barracks. Especially if along with high maintenance, poor performance of assigned duties or outright sabotage of the mission proves the decision to recruit either the system or the person in the first place was misplaced trust.
And without trust in material and/or personnel, no military operation can operate effectively.
Something else came out...like...no more teaching of PR crap....”it’s all about combat”. I’ll look for it.
