We need to require these cute little High School girls to register for the draft — don’t we? NOW!~!
there is just no way I can see a 37 year old woman getting through a school who’s requirements are a struggle for men in there 20s. if I herd it was some girl in her early 20 I can see it happening. But I have trouble seeing a guy who is 37 years old passing the class let alone a women. I don’t think I am sexist I just believe in the reality of ageing. there is a reason why we send the young to war it is because they can physically out perform us old farts.
I think the reason these 3 were picked was that they had the political pedigree wanted by the brass. at 37 the gal is old enough to keep her mouth shut about the fudging of the requirements where a 2o year old kid would talk and might say something about the training to a friend and it get out that it was faked. unfortunately the brass did not think through the fact that most combat vets would not believe she could pass.
We’re being systematically sabotaged.
Spetnaz is laughing their @sses off.
Grew up with one of Merrill’s guys. Worked at my school.
Very quiet man, but of course...tough in ways we couldn’t imagine then. Never said a word about Burma or the war.
His kid - all 6’4” of him - was one of my best friends.
Was always good to have him around in a rough situation. Like Father, like Son.
How female and males are different at ranger school:
1. Different PT Tests.
2. No female can be dismissed from the course. They have to quit.
3. Any female recycled gets to go back through the NG Training Ranger Prep Course for the part she failed.
4. All females went through the NG Ranger Prep Course.
5. Females never carry the heavy 240B or the radio.
6. Females get half the latrine. 18 females get half a latrine. 150 males get the other half.
7. There is now a curtain for the ORP or patrol base cathole.
8. “Female” observers looking for any sign of a micro-aggression.
etc.
