Give it a rest. Attempting to connect the U.S. military with the rights of transgenders is misplaced. NO ONE has the right to serve in the U.S. military. Certain medical and aptitude standards must be met. Medical documentation show transgender persons have higher rates of depression, anxiety and substance abuse compared to others. That alone is enough to disqualify them from serving.
