Which in the overall scheme of things and TO & E means nothing.

I hear there’s a base at Adak that needs a brand new Motor Pool Officer and adjutant!

I know I feel safer. When the first tranny brigade is formed we’ll really be safe.

A lot of officers, especially West Pointers, get the tab even if they are in other branches or never serve in the 75th because it’s a challenge, prestigious and a career enhancer.

But they won’t be in combat, so they won’t anyone but themselves.

Pretty sure they are actual women.

I was skin and bones when I finished Ranger School. I don’t know if that photo was taken after they graduated RS, but if it was it doesn’t look like they missed more than a couple of meals to me. Just sayin’

Still, it’s a waste of resources.

Congrats!

Got to remember that Israel has had women in the armed forces for years.

“I may be wrong, but I believe what they went through was merely a tactical combat course that is open to other branches of service. It is not Ranger Selection . While they rate to wear the RANGER tab those that complete the Ranger Selection and Assessment get the Ranger Scroll and go on to serve in a Ranger Bn”

Have to correct you. RASP is the Ranger Selection and Assessment. That's not what they just did. They did Ranger School....though I have it from a Ranger that I am very close to that their instructors were told to “pass them through” and that they recycled each course several times. They started the 6 week program in April, which tells you a lot. I've been told that it was VERY political. The only saving grace is that they will not be part of the 75th Ranger Regiment.

mark my words... one of the last acts of King Barry I as he and his tranny wife are absconding with the White House China... will be to open ALL combat branches of the military to women. the relentless ratcheting of liberal social engineering never stops. he'll do this after the 2016 election, but before he leaves office. SOP for the democRATS.

Anybody who raises their girls to think they can do ANYTHING a man can do is nuts. - Daddy was in the Army Infantry during WWII; no women in basic back then. He said there were some “gays”, only they didn’t call them gay back then. He said most of them struck out in basic. The MEN were intent on the war & shoving Hitler’s Third Reich down his throat. - They moved FAST; too fast for foolishness; up through N. Africa, Italy & into Germany just 30 minutes after Hitler had taken the coward’s way out & committed suicide. - War makes you grow up quick! Quick or die! No foolishness!

The nation has gone stark raving mad. It will take something extremely traumatic to bring it back to its senses.

Har!

This evil MF CPUSA stooge in the WH will do maximum damage to US Military as long as he is in power.

The only reason he doesn’t talk about a third term is he’s a lazy bastard, has no incentive as he’s already rich and carried out his mission, and the USA “Officer Corpse” would make the situation real.
