The available evidence suggests that transgender Americans serve at rates well above the national average. Though the data is sparse, studies estimate that trans men and women are anywhere from two- to five-times more likely to join the military as their cisgender (nontrans) counterparts. For all its perceived conservatism and raging heteronormativity, the United States Armed Forces is almost certainly the largest employer of transgender people in this country.

Fake science. A pro-"Trans" institute guessed then used a bunch of statistics to mold their grossly inaccurate raw data into fancy graphs. There is zero evidence of how many "Trans" are in the military. Plus, the definition is so subjective that about any person can be classified as "Trans".
I wish we would spend 99% of our time discussing how the 99% of non-"Trans" service members perform. This is why PC polices are bad for the good will of the service. 99% of those in uniform are being ignored. How will a senior service member who worked hard for a long time feels when a junior person who has gender dysphoria gets all the attention, gets extra time off for medical reasons, and who's mental condition must be tolerated and accommodated?

Sir, respectfully, you are throwing strawmen out here. Service members of all gender identities have medical issues that are tolerated and accommodated. It's why we have temporary and permenant profiles. You need to show your work to claim trans service members do this more than traditionally sexually oriented service members. Further, even if they are the vast minority, why does that mean we treat them differently? What's politically correct about treating all service members the same?
