Can we see the video of her carrying a 100 lb ruck up a mountain?
Bull Cheese.
Perhaps it was a man who identified as a woman. After the way Nobama has orchestrated the perversions in the ranks - this would not surprise me.
Secondly - we know the training and fitness standards wee dumbed down. Just for the gals. Who still failed in large numbers.
When Trump drains the Pentagon swamp, maybe (hopefully) some class and dignity will return to our Armed Forces and normalcy will return.
I applaud her willingness to serve. And her unreal level of fitness for being able to even come close to any of that.
But for a whole host of biological reasons, women make lousy special operators.
Don’t mean to insult her, but that’s just how it is.
Sad and sick. And also notice they made her a leader, forcing enlisteds to be respectful.
Her dad must be so proud. /s
Also, she went through the 21 day senior leaders course, not the true Ranger course that is 61 days.
the Army Rangers have probably gotten some females before
Participation trophy.
I wouldn’t serve with her.
Comport women?
I’m not saying I could do it but that does not seem like much of a test to become a ranger for a guy.
But...but...but...I have people here on FR telling me that there isn’t an active push to get women into combat roles, and that restoring the draft to include women wouldn’t include that as a “feature”.
Just what do they suppose a female “Ranger” is going to do, if not combat?
Frikking insanity.
They should resubmit the request once Carter is replaced, as he surely will be.
Instead of foxhole, they should rename it for Carter..
The ash-hole
Well, there will always be, ‘firsts’ when it comes to anything.
I was in the first ever Co-Ed Basic Training Platoon at FJSC in 1979. WE gals loved every minute of it - other than dragging those pasty, fat boys along with us.
*SMIRK*
Kinky warriorettes.
My son-in-law is a Major in the M/C....
Today and tomorrow he is in mandated Trans-Gender training....
Please note this is NOT the same course taken by REAL Ranger applicants which is about 3 times longer and 50 times more rigorous.
12 hours and 27 minutes more of this nonsense.
Tooting my horn: I can blow through this stuff easily right now and ham sandwich at the same time.
Below is the essay I am going to send to Congress and the president annually until the day I die
Ash Carter’s announcement December of 2015 about women in combat demonstrated the Obama Administration attachment to a political ideology fueled by arrogance and premeditated ignorance. Carter’s supposed direction of any long period of study and vigorous debate sought only those mutually supportive creatures that have metastasized throughout the military to serve a social agenda bringing future needless devastation.
Most of the points I highlight about women in combat arose first when the decision was made to do away with DADT, and invite the LGBT community into the mainstream of military operations. In the case of DADT, the religious fervor driving a delusional Congress and Administration sought comfort from a fallacious study conclusion showing purport for their decision, when in the fact trigger pullers at the core of military operations rejected the idea.
Neither decision is compatible with combat operations that too often demand unpredictable and unimaginable endurance and brutality to achieve victory. Only the highest physical abilities and most severe restrictions on human behaviors and interactions can foster the required high morale, good order and discipline, and unit cohesion required. Resorting to war for national defense entails the ultimate Olympics of conflict occurring at the bleeding edge of existence where the unbelievable must become the possible.
Human sexuality, and therefore LGBT behavior and women, simply cannot intrude into this sub-culture where only those displaying the greatest savagely can hope to win. Particularly regarding women, national defense compels the highest in physical achievement where no excuse exists for merging men and women into war environments more severe than any found in the Olympic competitions every four years.
Combat forms personnel into rigid, task oriented units. They then descend into a squalid cacophony of shrieking, cursing, sobbing, crashing dissonance to orchestrate the killing of other humans without hate or joy. These people continuously face extraordinary mental and physical stress, and survive by acquiring the wisdom of wild animals that live in the moment without schedules for eating and sleeping. At the point of collision, they undertake operations requiring sacrificial, primitive, and intimate actions. They must display a noble fidelity to each other despite environments that are inherently chaotic, barbaric, and brittle. Overcoming this alternate reality requires trained killers subject to a totalitarian leadership and narrow focus unimaginable for those who see any opportunity for the social alchemy popular in civilian life.
The regimental combat teams for infantry, mechanized, and armored units are now the playthings of bureaucrats committed to equal opportunity and affirmative action. They are dismissive of warriors enduring the carnage imperative for triumph. Institutional memories no longer exist for fighting ferocious, shrewd enemies such as the Germans, Japanese, Chinese, and North Vietnamese, who utilized a full array of modern weapons. If one notes the ribbons on any senior officer’s uniform, they show they fought only Arabs the Israelis beat three times at 20 to 1 odds.
Such people now question the necessity for standards which do not obfuscate inferior female physical performance or the psychological degradation of units forced to incorporate LGBT and feminist agendas. Social engineering that amalgamates these agendas has become the overarching imperative to which all operational capabilities must submit.
Women can serve in many rolls, but do not belong at the pointy end of the spear, and should not be holding it to the extent they intrude into the fellowship of combat arms, which depends upon savagery and physical strength for victory. LGBT behaviors simply have no place in our military where sexual extravagance breaks down unit cohesion. As this tragedy unfolds I will remember the quote that, “Men sleep peacefully in their beds at night because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf”.
A lot of good men are going to have to die in years to come to cover up the abandonment of the military as the ultimate meritocracy. This tragedy of women in combat following endorsement of LGBT behaviors provides another reason I now always council men to never enter the armed forces
General Martin E. Dempsey

Notice from the ribbons on his uniform that General Dempsey, never fought the enemies mentioned, and now questions the necessity of current high standards which already allow inferior female performance?

Marine Corps boot camp, job titles to be gender neutral by April

Be sure to check out the photo of Secretary of the Navy Ray Mabus. He looks to me like someone who should be holding personnel seminars at Health and Human Services. I would not want to have anything to do with the gooey product resulting from the fulfillment of his vision. I think it is time to retire the service dress blues for a mauve uniform with a pink stripe and fashionable French berets. Considering the defense secretary claimed a long period of study and vigorous debate, I maintain discussion was among those mutually supportive creatures that have metastasized throughout the military to serve the LGBT and feminist social agendas. Most of the points I highlight below about women in combat first arose when the decision was imposed to do away with DADT. A lot of good men are going to have to die in years to come to cover up this needless disaster.
