Just in: “I hereby revoke my memorandum of August 25, 2017, "Military Service by Transgender Individuals," and any other directive I may have made with respect to military service by transgender individuals.” — Signed @realDonaldTrump
Accompanying statement from the White House on transgender men and women serving in the military:
The Post’s Pentagon team has a story forthcoming on this. Needing further clarity in Trump’s memo re: transgender military service is the word “substantial.”

“individuals who the policies state may require substantial medical treatment, including medications and surgery”
President Trump signaled late Friday that he will not ban all transgender members of the US military from serving, but deferred to a new Pentagon plan more restrictive than a policy adopted by the Obama administration.
