It never ends, does it?

Of course this begs the question of why exactly  does the military need
transgender troops? Do people suffering from the delusion that they were
born the wrong sex convey some sort of advantage to the military? Are
transgender troops better able to withstand the stress and rigors of combat
because they have undergone hormone treatments and gender reassignment
surgery? Are they needed to counteract the transgender troops of our
potential adversaries?
