Re “Trump Says Transgender People Will Not Be Allowed in the Military” (nytimes.com, July 26):

President Trump’s reckless decision to announce a ban on transgender service members is the wrong one for the thousands of active transgender service members as well as for recruiting. Other military powers such as Israel and Britain employ inclusive militaries that haven’t been hurt; we should do the same. A military that reflects society is a strength, not a weakness.
