Gerrrrrrate. With libs the exception always proves the rule. If one did it, that means they all can, right? And, if they all can, they all will, right? All you gotta do is believe, right?

Or, Rangers they have earned and Rangers they are and any simple-minded talk of lower standards just shows how wrong you are.

“You’ve acquitted yourselves quite well,” said Maj. Gen. Scott Miller, commanding general of the Maneuver Center of Excellence, to the graduates. “You’re leaving Victory Pond with a small piece of cloth on your shoulders, but, more importantly, you carry the title of Ranger from here on out.”
Miller, who graduated from Ranger School almost 30 years ago to the day, recalled what the speaker at his graduation said.
“He said, more or less, ‘you have people who will question the standards of Ranger School. When they question those standards, what I ask you to do is invite them back to Fort Benning, Georgia, and re-validate their tab,’” Miller said. “To date, we’ve had zero takers.”
...Actually Sycamore, you are sort of right....

Does anyone honestly think that the army would allow any stories that contradicted the narrative without repercussion? I spent a few years in and my guess is no. Personally I don't know if they made it through without some help or not. Although TBH from what I've read I think there was a whole lot of command influence on their passing. I also think that in a few years when some of the RI's have retired we'll hear some more stories.

Good night. If only Washington had known of the strength he could have conscripted.

My unit spent 6 MONTHS in the field. Jorge,Kamo Gari Webster Parish and Woody and 4ager can attest to how much combat we were in,they read the reports. Stress levels are off any known scales and tensions between us were high as it was. Water was for drinking. Showers were monsoon rain or a waterfall,otw hygiene was very difficult. 100 lb+ rucksacks were our "house on yer back". WOMEN would NOT been welcome and a SEVERE detriment to unit morale and cohesiveness. There's only one way this is going to play out. They'll be put in the field. They will not do well. No idea, how do the Israeli women do? Really? You can't understand the difference betwixt our military and Israel's. I have heard nothing but praise for the Israeli military on this site.

Bark, women on the front lines will provide the, uh, stimulus many have been looking for.

Id trust what he says a lot more thsn either of you PC crew, heart directed suckers. I don't think he's lying. I'm just not sure what it has to do with these two Rangers? Nothing? I think nothing is what it has to do with the Rangers. Me? PC? you mucking four iron. I'm as not PC as you can get. I just observe what is, and don't listen to the whiny bullshit of people who know nothing about that which they speak...

Sorry, i abhor the thought of our men suffering at the hands of muzzy enemies and that pales in comparison to what i feel with regard to our service women will and hsve suffered at the hands of arab men. I guess if you fell you have the license to mischaracterize me i can do the same for you, you slandering pos. Why do you get your kicks wanting to ser our women suffer unspeakable horrors at the hands of our enemies? Do you get off on it. How can you have insanity to the point of thinking i would be happy to hear of women falling and being hurt or kilked. I woupd much prefer it have been men. My argument, you imbecile, is made with respect to protecting our women, while all you are concerned with is allowing them to have their PC pushers gush over how women can contribute and suffer as much as men can. Kiss my rosey red you mischaracterizing ass. Hmmm, you are very sensitive.

Doesn't matter which century or which continent, you will always find men fighting about bleeders.

Whether or not the standards were lowed or not is not the issue or the point of the media hype here. What you phuggs are too stupid to realize, is that all of this media attention is a prep show. And why? Prepping everyone for Hillary.
The DoD lifting of DADT was a precursor to allowing gay marriages nationwide.
Truman did the same thing prior to the Civil Rights movement.
DoD is and has been a big social experiment for many years.
They have all you numbnuts worked up about a couple of chicks wearing a Ranger tab, meanwhile, they are trying to figure out how to get Hildabeast in the WH.
Dont loose focus on the real issue here. BINGO! ^ This.

Meanwhile, back at the facts, the Israelis have had women in the front lines pretty much from "go," and are largely considered one of the best fighting forces in the world.
My experience is guys who don't want women in traditionally "male" roles are afraid of being shown up by "girls," and I've seen enough of it to be certain of my statement. 1. Israelis don't deploy. Big Difference! 2. What is your MOS? 3. You really think this is about being "shown up"? Delusional! 4. 128 Days to complete a 58 day course? Hmmm... 5. I bet their peer reviews are never released. I wonder why? Maybe it doesn't fit the agenda David?
