Book Excerpt:
The newly commissioned 2nd lieutenant, Meredith Durand, aged 22, was freshly graduated from West Point. She emerged out of her tent, bringing in the heavy scent of sunbaked sand along with her. She was on her first deployment. The weight of her new role was heavy, not only because of its soldiers' lives stakes but the strange transformation reality had thrust upon her. When Meredith looked down, her dog tags blinked back at her. The etching 'Meredith Durand' was printed in bold under the stark daylight, and a hush laid on her lips. It was undeniably her, but also not completely.
Her military fatigues suddenly felt different, perfectly molded to her new womanly contours. Her figure had softened. Her uniform had transformed into female service fatigues, no longer the loose, boxy attire she'd grown accustomed to. Her body felt fuller at the top, with breasts filling out the otherwise comfortable cloth. Down her back, her hair was longer, pulled up into a high, neat bun as per military regulations. The rustling desert wind tugged on her loose hair strands, seeming to play with their new length.
As Meredith fingered her driver’s license, she found it affirming another reality. The clipped military ID card, earlier labeled under 'MALE,' now plainly said 'FEMALE'. All semblance of her former male self, the base-born virility, everything was overwritten to accommodate her new feminine identity. Her hands trembled as she opened her phone, only to find her social media filled with photos of herself in various stages of girlish youth and womanly grace. The universe had not only transformed her but was adjusting itself to affirm her new reality.
She was the only one who remembered being a man. To the world around her, Meredith Durand was always a woman. Her fellow comrades, her superiors, even her own memory started to betray her masculine past. Her mind became a contested terrain between the reality she knew and the reality she was thrust upon. Her thoughts were eroding, aligning with her new identity until her old male name seemed foreign on her tongue. She was compelled to introduce herself as Meredith, referring to herself with female pronouns. Resistance seemed futile, even wrong.
Another challenging aspect was her shifting sexuality. A strange attraction began stirring within her. As she stood there amidst her fellow service members, she found herself noticing the same men she had once called brothers in arms in a new light. It was a change she didn't want to accept, another piece of her former self she had to let go of. She tried to resist, to fight against these shifting sands of sexuality, but she was continuously drawn to them, to the warm allure of masculinity.
Meredith was forced to abandon her old ways. Just as how she was expected to comport herself like a proper servicewoman, her movements naturally fell into a more feminine sway. She started walking, talking, and acting like a woman naturally, and her attempts to mimic her former masculinity felt forced, incorrect. This change was met first with denial, then anger, bargaining, and eventually, acceptance. Meredith Durand, the newly graduated Lieutenant, was learning to navigate her strange new world, in a battlefield far from home.
