    I'd hurry up before Cheeto reinstates "Don't Ask Don't Tell."

    I believe Obama passed a bill that lets trans people serve openly, I think. But, I'm sure with how bigoted Trump and his team are, that won't be a thing much longer.

    i knew that the law allowing trans people to openly serve had been passed, i'm wondering if anyone has experience being trans or transitioning while serving :slight_smile: though now i am worried that trump will try and reverse that bill :')
