Booya brother!

It is noteworthy that a woman you know was on the triathlon team. But the problem is that the three exercises they do in triathlon are swimming, running, and bike riding. None of these points equate to carrying a heavy sack, a weapon, or a body and running 100 years in a firefight. Sports is one thing and can be considered. But none of the exercises she does compares to the need to protect herself, her unit, or the finalization of the mission. Thank you for the entry.

I agree. Girls still need to pass the schools. Also, I trust the Army figure out if an officer does not have the right stuff. Same as they do with male officers.
