I never thought I'd ever see this in my lifetime.

This is excellent! Is this the first person to come out as trans and indicates his intent to physically transition? Or is this just the first in the Marine corp?

If so, I am VERY glad there is someone who began this process prior to Donald Trump coming into office because it would be harder for him to "undo" the federal order I would think (if he could?), since it is not like he will be able to "prove" that it has been disruptive to the military.

I do know that there are some FTMs already, who have been on hormones and such. There was that one guy, Army, who when overseas lived as male. When he returned (>6months ago?, his command allowed him to continue to live as male).

I really appreciate this post, as I have been worried about this specific issue. Cis women being allowed in the Army infantry has already gone into effect, right? I think it was supposed to occur this past June and I may have read that 3 women have already moved into those positions...or were in the process and 1 made it in...or something like that?
