Original Note:
Chris Beck retired in 2011 from the military, transitioning in 2013. He was not a transgender woman in the military. Beck detransitioned in 2022. It is inaccurate to refer to him in 2025 as "she;" or to claim he "has since (2013) been an advocate for LGBTQ+ rights." https://www.military.com/daily-news/2022/12/13/retired-navy-seal-and-trailblazer-transgender-troops-detransitioning-critical-of-va-care.html https://www.foxnews.com/us/retired-navy-seal-made-famous-coming-out-trans-announces-detransition-destroyed-my-life https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chris_Beck_(Navy_SEAL) https://nypost.com/2022/12/12/ex-navy-seal-who-detransitioned-warns-transgender-teens-slow-down/?utm_campaign=iphone_nyp&utm_source=pasteboard_app
