The soldier in the scenario has not yet seen a military medical provider for the condition. <\/p>\n<p>At that point, Army leaders are required to inform the soldier that the U.S. military &#8220;recognizes a soldier&#8217;s gender by the soldier&#8217;s gender marking in DEERs,&#8221; or the Defense Enrollment Eligibility Reporting System, a massive database that tracks military members. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The soldier, according to the presentation, will be expected to meet the uniform, grooming, and physical readiness standards associated with their recognized gender,&#8221; the outlet added, and noted that the soldier in question would then be sent to a military medical provider who is able to determine whether &#8220;gender transition is medically necessary&#8221; at that point. <\/p>\n<h3>What else?<\/h3>\n<p>A spokesperson for the Army told the outlet that the slides in question are part of a required training and are taken from a program &#8220;used to train Army personnel on the recent changes to the DoD and Army transgender service policy.&#8221;  <\/p>\n<p>The spokesperson added that all Army personnel are required to participate in the training by Sept. 30, 2022. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We remain committed to treating all soldiers with dignity and respect while ensuring good order and discipline,&#8221; the spokesperson added. &#8220;Soldiers who meet those standards can serve openly in their self-identified gender.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>While much of Ukraine fights for its continued freedom, some U.S. soldiers are being made to learn about gender identity and preferred pronouns, the Washington Free<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2315279,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1354531","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1354531","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1354531"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1354531\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2315279"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1354531"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1354531"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1354531"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
