These photos never should have been kept from the American public for even a day.
If the deranged politicians want to send women into combat and at the same time expose their daughters and mothers to men in the bathrooms, locker rooms and showers back home - then God help them.
They are in danger - from us.
The first photo was not kept from the American public. It was release in early 1943. The dead are Americans from the 32nd Infantry division, killed during the Buna landings in late 1942. The are among the first photos of American KIAs released to the American public during WWII.
would a coed D-Day operation have been successful? It is highly doubtful. Well, we won’t ever know the answer to that question, but we do know our tradition as a Nation, and the Founding Fathers acknowledgment as to the place of women in society. In the home having and raising children not engaged in political or physical battles and not needing the vote by virtue of their traditional influence raising the next generation, not to mention the generational influence as homemaker, nurturer, and educator to a Nation of men and women who recognize and honor historical tradition.
Ignore the traditions of history, and we are bound to find out at some point why those traditions were in place and important. There are a few women who would trade child birth for combat arms, but men if they were intelligent would reject the idea as foolish and short sighted. Feminism alone along with the idea that killing the next generation through legal, but I suggest not lawful means, is nothing more than a simple thing called “choice”, is to forget tradition. To understand the scriptural words “reap the whirlwind”, we need only continue on course the present generation has set for us.
