Over the past decade, Sgt. Shane Ortega has served three combat tours: Two in Iraq, one in Afghanistan. Two as a Marine and one in the Army. Two as a woman and one as a man.
Ortega is a helicopter crew chief in the Armys 25th Infantry Division in Hawaii. He was born female and would like to serve the rest of his career as a man. That would require a significant change in Pentagon rules, which require that transgender troops be discharged from military service, usually on medical grounds.
Last summer, medical tests showed Ortega had elevated testosterone levels due to the hormones he was taking to support his transition to being a man. As a result, he was barred from flight duties. He still faces the risk of being separated from the Army, but the intervention of an outside legal advocacy group has held that off, at least temporarily. He remains a woman in the eyes of the military, a status with emotional and practical costs.

I think the military records will be changed. Maybe they should have M for male, F for female and T for it.
Great. Nothing like having a mentally unstable individual in a situation when many lives can be at stake. I suggest they create all “trans” units if thats the case so they can provide emotional support to each other.

Oh. My. God.
Now the whole Pentagon is tranny?
Active Duty ping.
It will take the US military 50 years to undue the damage done by Barry Bathhouse. I don’t think it can win back the respect Americans once held for the Armed Services. From sodomites raping young soldiers to drag queens getting special privileges, it’s insane. But Barry has done for the US military exactly what has done for the US in general. Dragged us down in the cesspool of every perversion known to man.
Traitors all.
Cue the Village People!!
They are persecuting Christians in the military now in the name of gay sex acceptance. They have the power seriously harm Christians. Male on male rape is no stranger to the military. Stay out of the military. It’s not your dad’s military.
Some of the old Soviet insiders are laughing hard in a daca somewhere outside Moscow. They lament that they spent billions to bury the US in an arms race they lost. When all they had to do is destroy the military from within as Obola is trying hard to do.
I am retired now after 25 years of commissioned service. I am now a civilian trainer for the Army. The normal Soldiers are hanging in there. These social engineering distractions are not going to take down the military. There are still too many good folks who still serve. The environment is more hostile but the good ones who used to “sleep” on these issues are wide awake now.
In the new job six months and have seen 15 units come through my element for collective training. A mix of active and Guard units. Not one had a transgender soldier nor an overt homosexual. Not a peep.
Not saying this is not damaging to morale. And I strongly oppose what the DoD is implementing. However it is going to take a lot to destroy the military.
I thought enormous tattoos weren’t allowed in the military.
I assume she’s still birth-body geared. Maybe she’s not planning on having a penis attached, & just require humans to play along with her delusion.
Those are radar-absorbing tattoos! That penis is really a laser-guided grenade launcher.
