Anyone Else Want To Enlist Into the Military?

[EtheralBotany]

I am glad, though if I "sneak in, while transitioning', I will have to cut my hair, continue hrt in secrecy and come out in the midst of EVERYTHING! It can maybe be simple, but I worry it would be complicated. Why now? Well this and well that. Sooo maybe I should wait until May 2016..?

I could progress and also become fit (no gungho muscles, but maybe a lil' some.. Duties =]) anyways swerve around my sprout of dysphoria and muscles...

There are many setbacks if I enlist now, when with patience I could be honest and precise.. Because I want to become a Navy Seal and perform so as a woman; in my respects, but combat deployment may not be an option for us; my most troublesome worry about lifting the ban..

Cliché and stereotypes of being a trans individual, I am consumed with determination and joy doing what I have to do, visualizing, comprehending my gender identity and spiritual/religious/philosophical.. HeWBLah.. Ok I am just happy to be going through the process that doing it as a woman is the only way I see it 'going down'.

Sure I can wreck myself.. Well I am a confident woman, accomplished and vital.. Yet I had to go through A, B, C.. Ugh.. From a simple question, to transfocused relating to a personal emotional rant...

Time, time, time, is on my side... Not a belief but I hope!

Well if we cannot join in combat, there are possibilities!

If you are set on continuing HRT I wouldn't recommend joining the military until after the ban is lifted and the rules are set.  Using HRT with the ban still in place is asking for trouble.

While I think the ban will be lifted next year it's not a sure thing and there are plenty of politicians who will fight it to the end.

But then.... -_-
I just found out another perspective that completely changed my mind.. Worn out, maybe a firefighter is a better choice..

Also yea, looking for a job now.. Well thanks.. 24 I have not been aware of how when legalities and rights.. Or whatever, go against you.. None that I remember.. Well hopefully, it would be amazing.. Another option to life.. Can we just.. Is this real? :]

The Seal thing is real.  The Army is fully opening Ranger School to women and will soon allow them in all combat jobs.

About your desire to become a SEAL.  I went through Army Ranger School a few years back, obviously as a male LOL.  Even with T running full bore in my system it was singularly the hardest thing I ever did in my life.

If you decide to attempt SEAL training then start preparing physically months before you go.  And more importantly get your mind strong, even more important than your body.  No matter how prepared you are your body will eventually crash so after that it's all in the mind, never quitting no matter how miserable, tired, hungry,  sleepy, and hurting you are.
