The statement also noted that Thompson had an all-female maintenance crew to launch her historic flight.

If women are in combat, I have no objection to them serving as combat pilots too. However, I strongly object to choosing a maintenance crew for the symbolism rather than because they are the best people for the job.

Can’t agree I wager they will work harder to prove their worth and not just symbolism guess how Capt. Emily Thompson got where she is.

Choosing women for "combat" pilots is only about symbolism. Clinton started this bullsh*t.
