The two women who passed the Ranger course did so on their own merits and to the standards the rest of the men met.
They earned their way in and deserve the credit for doing so.
So it has been alleged by all official voices. Unofficial voices who chose not to be named for fear of repercussions say it is all bullsh*t.
If the assertion that these two females were given time off from their regular duties for four months to train for this test, that alone ought to disqualify them.
I believe they qualified in the same Degree that Obama demonstrated he was qualified to become President.
In my opinion, both are examples of affirmative action, and not demonstrations of actual merit.
Did they pass the “make me a sammich” test?
The totally unverified rumor I heard was that that particular class was given more food and allowed more sleep, and that the women were “tabbed out,” which means that once they got to a certain point in the course they were going to “passed.”
Like I said, all unconfirmed. But it wouldn’t surprise me.
What would surprise me is if they were both posted to the Ranger Regiment and sent into the field.
