You may want to do some research, the mix is 60% civilian to 40% military at the NSA. The mix is a bit more even at DIA facilities within DC but most military associated with DIA are spread out around the nation and overseas at military installations.

@ FPF: That's a powerful, damning statement. Where is your evidence?

No evidence she deleted all of her gossip column level comments

I think I’ll wait til people are relieved/fired before I buy that. I saw plenty of civilians walking around when I spent time at DIA doing war games and toured NSA. Remember the saying about “assume”?

OK, but her point is that there are probably more military transgender people than civilian, which I agree is counter intuitive. But then FPF also makes the point that these trans people JOIN the military to HAVE surgery. All if this is way outside of my experience, it is weird, quite frankly, must never be normalized let alone tolerate, and it is the worst scandal I can think of. It all started around 2008, but just got exponentially more insane under Biden, the worst president in US history.

I retired in June 2020. Never saw a single transgender military person. There are some that get a lot of visibility (Space Force Officer) but none of my mentees still in the Service mention transgender troops. Not saying there aren’t some sprinkled in…but not ready to buy it’s widespread.

Can you please provide some proof of "Also, many trans folks joined the military specifically to get the surgery and drugs for free."
