The slide tells soldiers to “understand that you may encounter individuals in barracks, bathrooms, or shower facilities with physical characteristics of the opposite sex despite having the same gender marker in DEERS.” [The military's personnel system] The next bullet point adds, “all Soldiers should be respectful of the privacy and modesty concerns of others.
