Clearly he does not understand that “transgender integration” is far more important that the potential for success of the US military.
Because diversity will win the next war General - get back on the government plantation.
Very good question. On PT testing day, and fatboy weigh in day, the entire unit will identify as female.
It will probably depend on how badly their self-esteem was damaged.
Trannies are both medically and emotional liabilities.
They don't even know their own sexual identity and are psychologically consumed with that issue. Along with that comes feelings of persecution and alienation from the mainstream. Would you want a messed-up loner anywhere a nuke?
Physically, their transformation surgery is extensive mutilation that requires equally extensive rehab. During the change process they will almost continuously be profiled out of any meaningful physical activity and that would eliminated them from any combat arms and even combat support roles.
Other than that, accomodating them makes perfect sense. I can't imagine why we haven't done that since the Continental army took the field.
Victory is not part of their lexicon, multi-everything is, transvestites are the current ones. Excellence is also not used any more. This will not end well, pray.
Since the barbarians hate homosexuals it would give them more motivation to try to kill AMERICANS!
Gen. Boykin, with all due respect you must surely know that every initiative of the Obama regime regarding the military has had the objective of weakening our Armed Forces so that America will LOSE any future wars, not win them. GET REAL, General.
That is an idiotic response

Why is it an idiotic response?
The purpose is to weaken the military. Period.

I just posted the same point, but not as succinctly.
46 or 47 years ago I asked an officer in my unit why they always seemed to group all the misfits, miscreants, whiners and other unwanteds into a squad to go into the most dangerous and hostile areas. I was told that we couldn’t send them back, but we could arrange to need replacements when they didn’t return from their patrols.
I doubt that they do this in today’s military.

Sending U.S. troops to fight in military campaigns in Third World sh!t-holes all over the globe -- even while our own borders are deliberately left open for all the detritus from those same Third World sh!t-holes -- never made any sense to me.
If we had gotten involved in the late '30s - when the Italians invaded Ethiopia and Libya, when the Japanese invaded Manchuria and took on China, when the Nazis rearmed and moved into the Sudetenland, millions of lives could have been saved.
This generation and the others since WWII recognize that the world is crawling with murderous swine, itching to get to us. You need to thank your Creator that there has been a gutsy thin line out there to keep you safe to spout your inanities.
I know the rest of you felt the same way.
However, the military is unfortunately a convenient petri dish for social engineering wannabes simply due to its very nature: you have to do what they say and you can't get away. Where the principal objective is fighting a war, you seldom encounter this perversion of priorities (although they still happen). Where the principal objective becomes other than that, the change from the military acting as a mirror of its parent society to one that is intended to be a pilot program for it becomes all too practical for those who simply cannot handle authority well, and that applies to nearly every progressive I've ever met including the upper stria of both military and civilian authority at the present time. Frankly, they're social engineers because they're too vain and stupid not to be.
Quite a bit needs to be trimmed from the upper echelons in order for this to be cured. Fortunately this can be done without the military losing a great deal of its fighting capacity. One visualizes a Diversity Officer parachuting into the front lines with a Powerpoint deck clutched between his teeth like those old Commissars that used to infest the Soviet military in the early days of WWII. As the Soviet armed forces discovered, these are remarkably expendable personnel subject to nasty accidents in a combat environment and in whose absence combat effectiveness does not appear to suffer a whit. A cautionary tale for the SJWs in uniform whoever they are.
Nicely written but your basic premise is unrelated to the point of my comments. In other words you’re setting up straw- man targets so you can have fun shooting them down. Doesn’t bother me a bit. Enjoy!
I recommend a nap.
