Don't bore them with obvious points about the twinkie narcissist who will be the weak sister in her own private F-16.

I'm sure we'll be seeing pics of her like this real soon:

"How does a 22 year old second lieutenant get a billet going to school at Harvard Kentucky?"

My brother was commissioned through AFROTC. The Airforce then put him in a MS (Physics) program for two years after which he came on active duty as a First Lieutenant.

Not sure exactly how the program works, or what the requirements are, but there are provisions for newly commissioned officers to go to grad school. Of course, every year in school adds two years to the officer's active duty committment.

“Well, she’s a master’s student at the Harvard Kennedy School’s public policy program, so she is probably already quite indoctrinated in the political poison soup they serve at the service academies these days.”

She’s being groomed as the next DeSantis - as she’s following right in his footsteps.

“ I have no problem funding education for current and veteran military. As far as Harvaard goes depends on her field of study.

It’s pre med or something to do with medical she must be an overachiever

because we didn’t want women in combat roles.

I'm still against women in combat roles. I believe that women can serve in the military. But I'll encourage women to serve mostly in medical units. And other units where it's segregated by the sex.

Agree with you!
A desperate society puts women in combat.

There were a lot a reasons to not pass the ERA. Most of them have become irrelevant as they have been achieved by their supporters anyway.

Agreed. ERA implied gay marriage was okay even. Title XI gave the feminazis and freaks everything postponed when the ERA was stopped.

Hi, BiEdLB, haven't seen much of you since the last election.

No matter how attractive she is; these pics of women doing kick-ass male jobs always remind me of the Soviet worker photos of oppressed, fat Russian women hauling buckets and hay carts. There are some things women shouldn't spend their childbearing years doing.
