US army private Chelsea Manning has revealed her new look as a woman after being freed from a Kansas military prison and a 35-year sentence for leaking classified materials.
The transgender soldier, formerly known as Bradley Manning, took to Twitter and Instagram on Thursday, posting a portrait photograph of her with short-cropped hair, bright red lipstick and a dark outfit with a plunging neckline.
The 29-year-old, from Oklahoma, included the caption: "Okay, so here I am everyone!!"
Manning was released early on Wednesday from confinement at Fort Leavenworth in Kansas, having served seven years behind bars for giving classified materials to anti-secrecy website WikiLeaks.
Manning and her lawyers have refused to divulge her post-prison whereabouts or immediate plans.
