active service as much as I had my reserve status. The application was accepted and four years later I am still on active duty. Notwithstanding my being a TV, I seem to have a natural inclination and aptitude for the military, having been fortunate enough to be the number one in my Officer's Training class in both scholastics and leadership, the honor graduate of my basic Officer's branch service school, and a distinguished graduate scholastically of both the other service schools I have attended. I have performed both staff and command duties and my efficiency reports during these four years have placed me within the top 10% of my commissioned officer contemporaries.

My wife C___________, and I were married in 1961 just prior to my entering active military service. I had had two very sad experiences in college with girls whom I felt then that I could have married and been happy with. Everything was fine until I told them about being a TV. This they could not or would not accept and we broke up. Therefore, I was hesitant about telling C_________ before we were married for fear that she would break our engage- ment. At the same time I knew that I loved her dearly and that it would be unfair to her if I didn't tell her and give her the opportunity to make her own decision before the knot was tied. So one night I quite calmly informed her about my secret. We discussed the subject at some length over a four month period and wonder of wonders-- this lovely girl accepted me for what I was. In fact, she gave me my first feminine gift for a birthday present 2 months before we were married (a beautiful nylon and lace baby-doll nightie). Since that day Chad truly become an A..wife, both in my opinion and in the opinions of other FP's who have met and come to know her. As a footnote for those analytical readers who might like to know---my choice of a wife had nothing to do with her being my size so that I might wear her clothes. C_______ is 5'6" tall, weighs 115 pounds, and wears a size 9 or 10 dress (quite different from Gisele's statistics mentioned earlier.

Our daughter is two years old. (I actually wanted a daughter instead of a son for our first child--is this typical of other TV's?) We are raising her to become accustomed to her father being dressed either in masculine or feminine
