It is questionable that these are even Pulaski's remains. For 75 years, the remains were missing and it was thought he was buried at sea. They found remains in Georgia marked as his, and they were "the right size" so it is assumed they are his. But, I'm sure they will run with this "he was a she" version.

From his/her grave marker:

Doubt and uncertainty exists as to where Pulaski died and as to his burial-place. A contemporary Charleston, S.C. newspaper item and other sources indicate that he died aboard a ship bound for that port. It was generally believed that he was buried at sea. A tradition persisted, however, that General Pulaski died at Greenwich plantation near Savannah and that he was buried there. When the monument here was under erection the grave at Greenwich was opened. The remains found there conformed, in the opinion of physicians, to a man of Pulaski’s age and stature and were re-interred beneath this memorial in a metallic case in 1854.

“When the monument here was under erection the grave at Greenwich was opened.”

If Pulaski was really female, how could there be an erection?”
