Army board orders Marie Sode expelled for homosexual tendencies
An Army board at Fort Rucker ruled Spec. 4 Marie Sode and Kristian von Hoffburg, a former WAC now claiming male status, live together as biological females. The panel found Sode unsuitable for retention due to a husband wife relationship and transsexual status, with the discharge recommended as honorable. Col. George Powers must review the decision, which faces possible higher review in Washington.
