Amos may be the worst commandant ever.
Since the real mission of the military is to kill the enemy of this country and break their things, “How does adding women to the military improve on this mission?”
And to add to your information, NPR recently learned of this requirement and whined all over the place saying it was descrimination..... of course NPR doesn’t understand that upper body strength is needed not only to possibly get yourself out of a dangerous situation, but also to be able to rescue your brothers in danger. They don’t care as long as those mean old Marines don’t descriminate against weaker individuals.
They must have a lot of dykes in the Marines because only one percent could do 3 pull ups.
Not one? Did you see that lesbo that cried wolf as a waitress? The one who was an ex marine? Dawg she should have been about to pull the bar out of the wall! What do you mean not do one or three pull ups?
This is all much ado about nothing. I follow a modified Marine Corps Fitness program to keep fit. It involves running, sit ups and chin ups. 3 to 5 hours per week. The Marines test twice a year and the women have always had different standards from the men. The women do an arm hang, where the men do a full chin.
This is a link to the official Marine Corp Order, where it all begins and ends. http://www.marines.mil/Portals/59/Publications/MCO%206100.13%20W_CH%201.pdf
This is just another made up story to get people all upset when there’s nothing to get upset about. We’ve got to stop being played like that.
You’re all looking at this the wrong way. This is actually a good thing, since those that the fed.gov will someday send to take our guns and preps (”hoarding of precious national resources is strictly verboten) will be less physically capable. Some patriot must be behind this policy change. /s
“This is just another made up story to get people all upset when there’s nothing to get upset about. We’ve got to stop being played like that.”
So, you are okay with different physical standards for the same job.
Does that include openly gay marine recruits? Since they are supposed to be women trapped in a mans body does that mean they are female?
What’s made up? All jobs are open to females now, and they can’t do the job.
Obama believes the job of the Marine Corps is to hold umbrellas. Who needs pullups for that???
Confused between want and can't, eh?
