If anybody ever watches military channel and shows on special forces there is no way in hell any woman could make it through based on physical standards required to get t hrough.. If they allow women, they then have to lower standards and that means people will die. Ultimtely, the repupblic dies.

I knew an olympic ranked lady shot putter. I figure she could have made it, if her knees held out.

I went-and washed out. Went on to Europe and was the fastest runner in my infantry company.

"Two Weeks in Hell": a 9-part series on YouTube that follows a class through SFAS (Special Forces Assessment and Selection).

Now, SFAS is NOT Ranger School. Two totally different animals. Here is a similar documentary on Ranger School. It's a tough school; I can't imagine any women (held to the same standards as men) making it through, though a few probably could.

Ultimately, so few women will graduate that the behind-the-scenes pressure to pass more women will mount--pressure from politicians and field grade/flag officers alike, make no mistake. It's inevitable...this is a bell that cannot be un-rung.

The republic died almost four years ago.
