Everyone keeps saying god help us when they allow women in combat arms units. Hell their been 31B females for yrs and I seen them in Afghanistan on patrols. Back in 09 one the Troops was coming from Deysie to Gardez they got caught up in a TIC they had a Female troop with them she got out of the truck and was laying down fire with the boys. ol 1Sg was telling her shoot over their shoot there she was rocking and rolling. Hell she got more trigger time than half the U.S Army does right now, in that incident one guy lost his leg and another lost his arm. I tell you those Cav boys were pretty damn proud of her... Now rewind to Iraq 2007 that same unit had a medic (male) freeze on them they hit an IED then a TIC Soldier's were down guys yelling for doc and this medic sat in the truck like a little bitch telling people he wasn't going to get out he wasn't going to die. They left him the truck but once they got back to the COP he was relegated to clinic duty. Kurds have found this to be no problem at all.

When I went through AIT, it was on a post that included female trainee's.
During the 15 mile road march, male soldiers were required to hump a 60lb pack. Females did the road march with no pack.
I have to wonder if on their third time through the march, these girls carried the same packs as their male counterparts.

I have no problem with these women putting their asses on the line and will probly out do some of the men, because they have more to prove.

Wouldn't it work just fine if they had an all-female unit of Rangers to fight together? That would make too much sense and not create the lack of cohesiveness and stress and in service pregancy rates the liberals are wanting.

Sounds like a lot of pee pee on the parade. I am proud of, and support ALL of our soliders. To these women I say WELL DONE. Well done in what? Getting hired. Have they gotten the job done in a safe and effective and efficient manner already?

You detractors are knuckleheads.
Most of the women I know in roles like this worked twice as hard to get there as the men, and I've been in the service for nearly 40 years.
I notice you're not talking smack about all of the men eliminated due to the "lower standards."
These two are trailblazers, and I welcome them into the leadership roles that they have earned.

Maybe the 24 Hour Campfire can do a groupbuy on a bumper sticker that reads: I support some of the troops, some of the time!

Oh yeah. It is not unusual for female sailors leaving ship after 6 mo at sea to have $20-30 thousand in their duffle bags. One enterprising young lady had $70,000 in cash. Very lucrative for some to be on ship nowdays. http://www.amnation.com/vfr/archives/014590.html

Or wait, no, you were a commissioned Peace Officer, right? Or was it a Doctor? I forget, you post so much. Quit running down the troops and re-posting crap you have no knowledge of. Sycamore

Jesus God that was a stupid post. God said to mix male and female soldiers on front lines? What is wrong with them having their own battalions?

I like to hear of more great and wonderful things the liberal PC crowd has led our country into.
Motor voter registration? F and F? NSA and the IRS intimidating us? Free health care? Free flights from central America for illegals? Releasing illegal alien felons back in the general population? Free sex change operations for the mentslly ill and free abortions while within 5-10 years hip and knee replacements- real health care- will be rationed? Free condoms in prison? Free needles?
Im waiting.

F facts Dodge, get with the program. Getting nookie on the front lines is important and exciting. This is serious. I mean, its not a joke like our national debt or Iran getting the bomb or something like that.
