VA to offer gender surgery to transgender vets for the first time
Leo Shane III
 

Veterans Affairs officials for the first time will offer surgeries for transgender veterans seeking to alter their physical attributes, Secretary Denis McDonough will announce on Saturday.

The move follows repeated promises by VA officials to make the department “more welcoming” to all veterans and was accompanied by an announcement that the Veterans Health Administration will rename its LGBT health program to the LGBTQ+ program to “reflect new community standards of inclusiveness and anticipate future changes in terms.”

“[This is ] allowing transgender vets to go through the full gender confirmation process with VA by their side,” McDonough said prepared remarks for an event at the Orlando VA Healthcare System in Florida. “We’re making these changes not only because they are the right thing to do, but because they can save lives.”

This isn't an enlistment enticement by any chance?  Be that as it may, offering gender reassignment will certainly help our cause with Muslim nations. *****rollingeyes*****

Yeah. Somehow, I just didn't see "Join the Marines and become a nutless wonder" as a recruiting slogan.

The US Army's new slogans for trannies. "An Army of "none." and "Be all you can't be."
