Timeline
In August 2015, CNN said that Beck was running for Congress to represent Maryland's 5th Congressional District. Beck finished second behind Representative Steny Hoyer in the Democratic primary election on April 26, 2016.
Kristin Beck appeared on the Dr. Phil Show in 2015. She has also been interviewed by Anderson Cooper on CNN.
Lady Valor: The Kristin Beck Story, a documentary, aired on CNN on September 4, 2014. Earlier during LGBT Pride Month on June 18, 2014 at the Defense Intelligence Agency, she received a plaque from retired Lieutenant General Michael T. Flynn when he led the DIA as its Director.
Beck retired from the Navy in 2011 with final rating as Senior Chief Special Warfare Operator when she began transitioning by dressing as a woman. In 2013, she began hormone therapy, preparing herself for sex reassignment surgery. During an interview with Anderson Cooper in early June 2013, she stated that she never came out during her military career and that "No one ever met the real me". After coming out publicly in 2013 by posting a photo of herself as a woman on LinkedIn, she received a number of messages of support from her former military colleagues.
OutServe Magazine praised the book, calling it "one of the smartest and most important books of the year". The Huffington Post noted that while the "don't ask, don't tell" policy was repealed in 2011, the ban on openly transgender people serving in the U.S. armed forces still remained. Days before the release of Warrior Princess, Metro Weekly's Poliglot column reported that the Pentagon had celebrated LGBT Pride Month in a memo while avoiding mention of transgender military personnel; the Pentagon memo read in part: "We recognize gay, lesbian and bisexual service members and LGBT civilians for their dedicated service to our country." The Atlantic Wire said that the book could "lay the groundwork for even greater inclusion in the armed forces" and Salon stated that Beck's military credentials may "lead the Pentagon to revisit its policy against trans service members". While restrictions on sexual orientation were lifted in 2010-2011, restrictions on gender identity remained in place due to Department of Defense regulations until 2016, when the Obama administration ended the ban on transgender Americans serving in the military.
Beck served for 20 years in the U.S. Navy SEALs before her transition, taking part in 13 deployments, including seven combat deployments. Beck completed Basic Underwater Demolition/SEAL (BUD/S) training with class 179 in 1991 and subsequently served with SEAL Team 1. She was a member of the United States Naval Special Warfare Development Group (also known as DEVGRU), a special counter-terrorism unit popularly called SEAL Team Six, and received multiple military awards and decorations, including a Bronze Star and a Purple Heart. She told Anderson Cooper she wanted to be a SEAL because they were the "toughest of the tough".
Kristin Beck (June 21, 1966) is a retired United States Navy SEAL who gained public attention in 2013 when she came out as a trans woman. She published her memoir in June 2013, Warrior Princess: A U.S. Navy SEAL's Journey to Coming out Transgender, detailing her experiences.
Beck was christened Christopher T. Beck in June 1966 and grew up on a farm. As early as the age of five, she was drawn to feminine clothes and toys, but was encouraged to adopt masculine roles by her parents. Before transitioning, she married twice and has two sons from her first marriage. She recounts in her memoir how her gender dysphoria contributed to her inability to emotionally mature while being in a male body, adding conflict to her sexual identity, although she never really felt gay. Additionally, her duties as a U.S. Navy SEAL kept her on missions away from home, which distanced her from family members. Before enlisting in the United States Navy, Beck attended Virginia Military Institute from 1984 through 1987.
