A crack soldier who was an ultra-tough Navy Seal has done one of the bravest things of his life - had gender reassignment surgery to become a woman.
Chris Beck sported a beard during his 20 years in the US Army and was detailed on an assortment of deadly missions as a member of the unit that took out terrorist mastermind Osama Bin Laden in a daring raid.
But now the facial growth is gone and transgender Beck has started wearing skirts in his new life as a "warrior princess".
It is quite a change for a person steeped in the macho world of special forces soldiering and its life-or-death risks.

We are beyond the looking glass, and the patients are running the asylum.
I’ve thought this story was fictional sodomite agitprop from day one.
Brave - as a soldier?
Indeed he was.
Brave - becoming a woman?
Not so sure.
While Chris Beck fought on some of the world’s deadliest battlefields for decades, he was holding in a secret: He identified himself as a woman.
As a member of the elite U.S. Navy SEALs for 20 years, Chris — now Kristin Beck — realized she wasn’t living the life she wanted.
“Chris really wanted to be a girl and felt that she was a girl and consolidated that identity very early on in childhood,” Anne Speckhard, co-author of Beck’s biography “ Warrior Princess ,” told ABC News.
According to the ABC News report, Beck suppressed that secret for decades, growing a burly beard as she fought on the front lines of American special operations.
After serving in the Army for 20 years, isn’t he a little too old to become a SEAL?
I’ll bet she can still grow a beard.
(... I also wonder if the VA paid for this)
There’s something phony about the whole thing.
“Something in the water???”
I don’t know, but it’s SOMETHING. Too much of this coming at us in a short period of time. Genetically modified foods, drinks, or some bacteria in (as you say)the water?
Vaccines maybe. But it ain’t nature, that’s for sure.
I wouldn't want to be "her" in a bar fight, now that he's shot up with estrogen. His memories of how strong he once was are going to trick him into thinking he can still take guys who are stronger than he now is.
Seriously, this is an extreme confused reaction to extreme stress on the battlefield. He should be having emotional therapy, not a takeadicfrumey.
Yes.
Wonder if “she” will be a lesbian like most of them. That doesn’t make any sense to me.
Oh! That's right, ass-clown Jesse Ventura DOR'ed.
This comes from http://information.usnavyseals.com/2009/07/all-the-requirements-for-becoming-a-us-navy-seal.html
“If you want to be a Navy SEAL then your age should be commensurate with the age requirements. Only those who are 28 years or less should apply. However, if you are between the age of 29 and 30, then you can request an age waiver.
Age waivers are not given to everyone who puts in an application for the same, but are given on a case-by-case basis after due review.”
Beck’s story is just that, A STORY.

I guess psychiatric help vs physical mutilation is out of the question these days....sigh....
“She” has no interest in kicking ass any longer... but “she” does have an interest in ass.
LLS
Fixing tag line
If it was gonna do this, it should have done it and kept its frigging mouth shut rather than embarrass the entire SEAL community. I have NO respect for this...person...and the fact that he/she/it is making money off it makes me sick.
Celebrate Perversity!
After reading all the posts, I can’t think of anything to say; it’s all been said...
