The United States Air Force has authorized the use of gender pronouns in electronic signature boxes for communications within the department.

"This guidance provides approval for the use of pronouns in electronic signature blocks and expands on written communication by providing official templates posted on e-publishing website available for download," the Air Force correspondence dated December 9 states.

"The use of pronouns (he/him, she/her, or they/them) in an email signature block is authorized but not required," the memo adds.

The Air Force did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Fox News.

The USAF Major who runs my “division” where I work as a support Contractor has done this already.

So if orders radioed to pilots don’t use the proper pronouns for them will the pilots have just cause to ignore the orders?

I agree. Our enemies are laughing at us. Just one more reason why this next year will most likely be my last as a federal worker. I’m tired of all this.

“The use of pronouns (he/him, she/her, or they/them) in an email signature block...”

Why do they insist on two gender pronouns, isn’t one of each enough?
And, if not, wouldn’t three be even better: he/him/his, etc?

Me too. I didn’t retire but I was a 10 year veteran, 29 year federal employee. I’m ready to file for retirement. I’m tired of this crap.

I learned in my 4 years in the USAF to develop a pretty thick skin.

That said, this USAF Vet is highly offended at this "memo". And, I'm not alone. At all.

Hopefully Gov. DeSantis can use this degrading memo in ad spots as he runs for POTUS. .

Got out in 2015, and I don’t fully recognize it after only six years.

As psychotic as most “woke” people are they might turn around and dump their ordnance on the command center. :(

Incorrect pronouns are violence ya know.

Someone should sue because their pronoun was not included...ie, Her Highness...King...etc.
