Military Super-Star Lt. Col. Bree Fram, Author of WITH HONOR AND INTEGRITY!

Lt. Col. Bree Fram, the second highest ranking transgender military officer serving today, is in the house!

We will be discussing her new book With Honor and Integrity: Transgender Troops in Their Own Words.. 

Should transgender service members celebrate the future of a more inclusive military—or prepare for the next administration to turn back the clock again?    With Honor and Integrity: Transgender Troops in Their Own Words (NYU Press; November 9, 2021) explores this question and other concerns—practical, social, financial, and medical—through the voices of transgender military personnel, past and present. The book shares honest, heartfelt, and often heart-wrenching accounts from 26 individuals who know what it is like to serve in the US military as a trans person. Putting a personal face on a complex issue, With Honor and Integrity features the stories of transgender service members across a range of ranks, all military branches, and a variety of occupational specialties and personal backgrounds and transgender identities.

Bree is a lieutenant colonel in the US Space Force who has held command at the squadron level, led Air Force security cooperation with Iraq, and led space acquisition programs. She is the President of SPARTA, a transgender military advocacy organization.
