on the other hand, just talking to a friend of mine multiple deployments in various bad places, over a number of years. marine corp. He doesn't think much of it. His comment was sometimes he would go 30days without a shower, having to poop in a plastic bag, and use whatever to get rid of crotch rot. How wondered how the average woman would deal with that? His comment being going through a school is one thing where portapotties were set up, but being in the field is different. His other comment was that the services have gotten very politically correct, where having a vagina, or the right color, or both fast tracked you on advancement. His comment being passed over as sargent 8 times, and having the right sex or color then giving you orders when they don't have the same experience level. Which is probably a big reason why people are leaving the military. And two woman out of all those ranger qualified, what does that really prove? A couple of super atheletes don't translate well aginst the great body, and how much in special accomodations are done for this politically correct goal?
THere are more women out there than you think, that can handle all that... wife goes with me for a couple weeks as a start, no shower, nothing, roughing it on the ground, often without tent, off trail and so on...
If the 30 days thing is an issue.
We can keep Larry Root and all his idiotic blabber and user names on here, but we can't get Ralph back..... Whiskey Tango Foxtrot, over....
