The Pentagon is working to end its ban on openly serving transgender soldiers, the Pentagon announced (http://www.defense.gov/releases/release.aspx?releaseid=17378) on Monday.
The details will be worked out over the next six months. The military will gauge whether to conduct or pay for medical treatments such as hormone therapy and gender-affirming surgeries, where trans troops would be housed, what uniforms they would wear, which bathrooms they would use, and other details, according to the Associated Press (http://bigstory.ap.org/article/67db24e3b2604c39b20c4b7f7e5bcbf7/apnewsbreak-pentagon-readying-plan-lift-transgender-ban).
