http://dailycaller.com/2014/08/26/report-remove-ban-on-transgendered-military-personnel/A report issued by high-ranking generals makes it likely that the military will allow transgendered personnel to serve openly, following in the footsteps of the repeal of ?don?t ask, don?t tell,? according to the Washington Examiner.
President Barack Obama and Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel have thrown their support behind the proposal, which was released Tuesday. Written by Maj. Gen. Gale S. Pollock, Brig. Gen. Clara Adams-Ender and Brig. Ge. Thomas A. Kolditz, the report estimates that about 15,500 transgendered personnel are currently serving secretly in the U.S. armed forces.
So far, two dozen personnel have been discharged from the military after their real identity was discovered.
