THE PARATROOPER WHO TURNED STRIPPER AFTER JUMPING BEHIND ENEMY LINES IN EUROPE, GI HAS SEX OPERATION, TURNS INTO WOMAN AND DISPLAYS 'HER' FIGURE TO CURIOUS BURLESQUE AUDIENCES BY DAN CHRISTOPHER Back in 1943, a lithe young figure pulled a rip-cord after dropping from a big Army plane and danced in the air, dangling from a parachute. There was a war in Europe and Robert Rees, a many-times decorated paratrooper, was jumping into enemy soil. Now 12 years later, the same figure does a considerable amount of dancing in a different setting. Instead of a ripcord, a G-string is now involved. And now the figure belongs to a young lady named Tamara Rees whose transition from paratrooper to stripper is one of the strangest chapters in the numerous sex-change operations in recent years. Unlike some others who have changed sex in a flurry of international publicity, Tamara describes herself as "a person who always was a woman and who has finally found the means of fitting properly into my own sex." Raised as a boy, then a man, Tamara never was either.
1955: Tamara Rees
"Will Lecture - Tamara Rees, paratrooper turned 'woman' by sex surgery, poses on the stage of a burlesque theater in Los Angeles with her new husband, J.E. Courtland, III. Couple will lecture on 'straight psychology.'"
