Military adds gender dysphoria screening to troops’ annual physical amid transgender ban
The Defense Department will start screening troops for gender dysphoria during their annual physicals as part of the agency-wide effort to kick transgender service members out of the U.S. military, according to a new memo published Thursday.
The document, signed by the Pentagon’s acting head of personnel and readiness, orders senior officials to “immediately commence the identification of affected Service members” via the Defense Department’s Periodic Health Assessment.
