It is worse than you think, Jump School is now merely parachute training without the running and push-ups and running a half mile or more to the smoke break area as a cruel joke, no first sergeant that will fight you if you are so inclined.

All the schools and basic are removing any portions that are obstacles to females, the Marine Infantry Officer school removed their physical portion that was holding weak men and women back, the Green Berets have done the same, Ranger school is declining.

Women are put upfront for morning runs to keep the pace slow, the males still help them with the heavy chores and getting them over obstacles or into trucks, lifting heavy things, opening jars, the urinals have been removed or taped off, logistics has to deal with 2 sexes, different cuts of uniforms, sanitary products, miniature clothes.

The women you know in your life, their sensitivity, their female worries and concerns, the things they are interested in, their obsession with comfort and health, and quality of life and food, and their outlook on what daily life and the workplace should be like, their aversion to risk and physical hardship, all that is becoming the Army now.

I suspected as much, I saw a utube video of the 82nd doing a run [looked like a Battalion] , there was no uniformity, straggling lines, everyone out of step, large gaps between troops, a woman screeching cadence , everyone seemed to have a different color tee on and worse of all no Jump boots it seemed to be an exotic array of footwear mostly sneakers or running shoes. and worse of all they all looked out of shape. It was embarrassing. Not my Airborne and certainly not my Dad’s. -
