Jack K., a third year student at Harvard Law School, dreams of serving in the military again.
One week each fall, members of the Judge Advocate General's Corps visit Harvard Law School to recruit its next crop of military lawyers. For Jack, it's one of the most difficult weeks of the year.
Despite his past military service, Jack is not eligible for JAG because he is a trans man.
