The whole push gives me the impression that this country has no intention of fighting a conventional war ever again. I’ve described on related threads in the past how I came across military-issue maternity BDUs (the new ACU digital pattern) in a flea market; couldn’t imagine why a pregnant woman would need a battle uniform...

My daughter was a combat engineer in the Marines between 2005 and 2009. Did 1 tour in Ramadhi burning garbage.

Vaginal privilege.

Told her to come back to me in 5 years.....when they would be 6-2 and you'll be 5-2.

“During the last fiscal year, which ended Sept. 30, 49 female 12B soldiers shipped to training. Since Oct. 1, 122 more have shipped, and another 143 are in the Future Soldier Training Program waiting to start training, Bland said.
WVLT, a local news station in Tennessee, first reported Lopez's AWOL status.
According to the station, also known as Local 8 News, Lopez is married and has two children.
“Women can do anything they set their mind to just as well as men,” Lopez told the news station when she enlisted. “I don't really see any difference at all. I hope women will want to join.”
Who was Mabus? Army-DOD-WH puppet?
“I hope they treat this deserter the exact same as they treat the average deserter. No better, and no worse.”
If you mean like the current administration treated ‘Bergdahl’, the girl has no problem.
Sec. of the Navy.
