None will come close to finishing the course.
The women who passed the Army Ranger course had different standards to meet than the men.

Not according to soldiers talking to Rush today.
They told him the Army adjusted NO requirements for the 19 women that initially started the training. That’s why only 2 out of 19 made it.
One of the female West Point graduate’s mother called into Rush’s show in June.
He said he takes these soldiers word.

Sure they will, by changing the SEAL standards—just as they changed Ranger standards.
This administration is all about form over substance. “Participation trophies”? Everyone gets to be the best.

What-eva..... Should we compare ranger school to BUDS on this thread? No way in hell.... (a rabbi of mine said you can say hell....just don’t send people there.)

Nope, apples, and oranges.
Your Rabbi was only partially right. You can send them there if they try to send you there first! :)

Yes, they did adjust it. For starters, the women got several months to ignore their normal duty and only train for it. No male gets that. They got to fail the first phase and get another try, a restart, (getting a mulligan). During the training, there was no peer evaluation of any kind allowed. All their evals were carefully watched. A two star actually walked on most of the patrols to observe how the women were being treated.
They got separate walled off areas with a tarp for privacy and latrine.
One broke contact on a patrol and lost half her patrol, but it wasn’t a fail.
Word has been trickling out. This is a farce.

...and this won't be the case with BUD/S? Think again. The die is cast.

Only the tip of the story on this fiasco. Looking forward to hear the stories from the other RIs, not that it matters- the Obama feminazis are in full throttle mode.

Just reporting what Rush said today, and he’s usually pretty accurate.
If you have proof of this maybe you should email him with it.
