Transgendered Soldier Comes Home Part II

From Chapel Hill, North Carolina comes a "continuation" story about a transgendered vet.

"On the road from rural North Carolina to the Boston suburbs, Sam Taylor has worn the shoes of a native son, student, soldier, and now, a young woman and religious leader.
“In some ways, I don’t see it as much of a change [but] as a continuation,” said Taylor, who is a transgender woman."
Growing up in a conservative Southern Baptist community didn’t allow much self-expression, Taylor said. Most of her family and friends didn’t learn she planned to come out until she returned with the 1-130th Attack Reconnaissance Battalion from a tour of duty in Iraq.  "
Read the entire story here on the "Chapel Hills News".

It contains an in depth look at one person's coming out process-
