Rachel Levine sworn in as first openly transgender four-star admiral
2021-10-19
Guess I missed this in March.
Or I went blind.
It's ma'am!

[FoxNews] U.S. Assistant Health Secretary Dr. Rachel Levine became the first openly transgender four-star officer in the uniformed services on Tuesday after she was sworn in as the first female four-star admiral of the U.S. Public Health Service Commissioned Corps.

The Department of Health and Human Services announced Tuesday that Levine was ceremonially sworn in as a four-star admiral, making her the highest ranking official in the commissioned corps and leading 6,000 Public Health Service officers.

The former Pennsylvania health secretary became the nation's highest-ranking openly transgender official in March after being nominated by President Biden.

#11  I didn't know DSHS had Admirals. Well I guess someone has to command the Tidy-Bowel-Man Navy.

#7  I can't believe we're really all playing make believe about "Rachel". How sad for him, and how truly sad for the state of our society.
