How did you interact with your fellow soldiers-in-training?

I saw that in another answer, you mentioned briefly how some of your male colleagues were confused when you were transitioning due to different uniform standards.

In the military, many soldiers do stupid things to one another e.g. play pranks. Furthermore, when only males are present, we also tend not to care too much about privacy--I have seen people walk out of the shower fully naked because they left their clothes or towels in their room. I can't speak for times when only females are present, because I have never trained together with female colleagues.

When your colleagues found out about your gender identity, did they become more private in your presence?

Have you read books like Paul Kalanithi's When Breath Becomes Air?

If you have, how do you see them? Do you agree with what they say or do your experiences and outlook on life differ? Have they shaped your impression of life?

Do you plan to write a biography about yourself to leave a legacy behind?

What drugs (medications) have you tried in chemotherapy?

How did you cope with the side effects?

How have your experiences with healthcare professionals (doctors, nurses, pharmacists, allied health professionals) been like? How have they shaped your view of the medical profession?
