Brown Jr., was nominated by Team Biden to replace General Mark Milley as Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Naturally, one of the questions that senators asked him involved the military&#8217;s transgender policy. Many are blaming this policy as contributing to the military&#8217;s recruiting challenges. One senator brought up a specific instance where a female trainee had to deal with being in an open bay and taking showers with men.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #0000ff\">From Fox News:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Air Force Gen. Charles Q. Brown Jr. made the remark after Republican Sen. Mike Rounds of South Dakota spoke about how &#8220;a young woman in the South Dakota National Guard experienced a situation at basic training where she was sleeping in open bays and showering with biological males who had not had gender reassignment surgery but were documented as females because they had begun the drug therapy process.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This 18-year-old girl was uncomfortable with her situation but had limited options on how to deal with it. If she raised her hand, she feared she&#8217;d be targeted for retaliation,&#8221; Rounds said, asking Brown, &#8220;If confirmed as the chairman, how do you propose to handle situations like this, which I truly believe may be impacting recruitment and morale by placing a disproportionate emphasis on gender-related ideology?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Senator, one of the things I&#8217;ve thought about in throughout my career &#8212; as you&#8217;re being inclusive, you also don&#8217;t want to make other individuals uncomfortable,&#8221; Brown responded. &#8220;And so&#8230; as we look at our policies and approaches and get feedback like this, we have to take a look to see if we can improve on how we approach situations like this. And as I&#8217;ve done as a service chief, as I&#8217;ve done throughout my career, if confirmed, I will continue to do so.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Brown appeared on Capitol Hill Tuesday as the U.S. military continues to face an uphill battle to attract new recruits &#8212; a concern repeatedly brought up by senators during lines of questioning.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Fox News has additional information <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/biden-joint-chiefs-chairman-nominee-military-shouldnt-make-recruits-uncomfortable-push-inclusivity\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Air Force general, Charles Q.
