Jeb Bush wasn’t totally opposed to the idea of transgender people openly serving in the military when asked about it during a campaign stop in Iowa on Wednesday.

Speaking to reporters after a backyard gathering in the small town of Washington where he took questions from audience members, Bush said that without knowing the specifics, he didn’t see a problem with transgender people in the armed forces, though it would depend on the role.

“I’m sure there’s a role for everybody to play in the armed forces,” Bush said in response to a question from BuzzFeed News. “I think it would depend on the role, the specific role, whether it’s appropriate or not.”

“The first priority for the military is to create an environment where the morale’s high, where people are trained, and we have the best fighting force. And if you can accommodate that in that kind of environment, I don’t think there’s a problem for it. But I don’t know anything — I have no knowledge of the specifics of that,” he said, referring to a story by BuzzFeed News’ Chris Geidner about the first out transgender military officer who is active duty in the Army, Jamie Lee Henry.
