Chelsea Manning Can No Longer Be Called ‘He’ by the Military, Court Rules

Bradley Manning is a “he”, but not much of one. Come get me, court.

Um, this can’t be correct. He is no longer a private first class (E-3) as he was demoted to private (E-1) upon conviction, or am I mistaken?

“this can’t be correct. He is no longer a private first class (E-3)”

According to the Order, Manning must be referred to as private first class or she.

Link is in the article.
