The President of the United States of America
To: the women of America, ages 18 – 26, you are being notified that you have been selected for training and service with the US Army, Navy, Marines and Air Force, courtesy of leftist social engineers who have no clue what military service or combat is all about.
The military draft ended in 1973, but since 1980, all young men in American must register for the draft on their 18th birthday and our eligible to be called up, should the nation need their services. Now, women will soon be eligible to be drafted as well; something the average American, who knows nothing about the military, hasn’t even contemplated.
This week, General Mark Milley, US Army Chief of Staff and Marine Commandant Robert Neller told Congress that they had no problem with women registering and being subject to a military draft, should the need arise.
Of course they had no problem with that. For active duty personnel to have a problem with the gender neutral self-immolation of the US military is tantamount to swallowing fifty Ambien and cannon-balling it with a bottle of Jack Daniels.
“It’s my personal view in light of integration that every American physically qualified should register for the draft,†Neller said. Milley echoed those remarks, saying “all eligible men and women†should be required to register.
Absolutely gentlemen, your $220,000 retirement checks, six figure defense contractor jobs and occasional appearances on cable news are a shoe in. Just sign your honor away here gentlemen. Make your mark.
Where has General Joe Dunford been during all this?
General Joe, radio check over…
Static…
The Pentagon is literally becoming a geometric sequel to One Flew over the Cuckoo’s Nest. The social engineers are marching forward, swallowing anyone in their wake who opposes the complete gender neutral takedown of the US armed forces.
The White House is pushing hard for the great debacle to be pushed at a frenetic pace. Ash Carter and Ray Mabus are working overtime to demolish the male, macho military culture of the past and implement a US military that is going to look like The Birdcage meets the Golden Girls with guns.
Senator John McCain has repeatedly asked why the push is so intense to put women in combat arms, the special operations and to subject women to a possible draft.
Why indeed?
Of course you can’t get an honest answer from the generals and admirals. They’re the willing executioners of the US Military. As Don Corleone said, you always get betrayed from those closest to you and the leaders of the US military would follow any order to keep their retirement benefits intact.
And, what do most women want in the military? Do they really want to serve in the combat arms and special operations? Over 90% of women serving in the US military want nothing to do with the combat arms and Special Forces and for good reason.
If over 90% of women serving in the military want nothing to do with being shot at in a war, what percentage of American civilian women will support being drafted and sent into the US Army Infantry to close with and kill the enemy?
I would think less than a quarter of one percent.
But, don’t worry about it ladies because the people who want you to experience the horrors of war have never and will never be within 5,000 miles of any shot and shell. That’s the way it always works.
The social engineers: people like Obama, Valerie Jarrett, Ash Carter and Ray Mabus have never seen war and never will.
Do we as a nation want to subject women to the horrific experience of serving in the combat arms in a war?
From my own experience of having served with the 7th Cavalry in the Gulf War, this is the kind of combat environment the women of America have to look forward to, thanks to a minority of left-wing feminist wackos who think sending them into hell is trendy:
Not showering for two months or more and having no access to any hygienic facilities because they don’t exist. What exists is a toothbrush and a bottle of water.
Having the final drive in your armored personnel carrier malfunction and subsequently being sprayed from head to toe with motor oil.
Being covered in dirt or sand, with once again, no opportunity to bathe for weeks or months at a time. It was common in WWII for combat soldiers to not shower for 60-90 days. Showers are not a concern in combat. Closing with and killing the enemy is.
Exposure to burning oil fires, nerve gas bunker detonations and depleted uranium round explosions.
Noises so loud that they make Saving Private Ryan in surround sound seem like a visit to the local library.
Having no privacy to urinate or defecate. Relieving yourself within eyesight of other soldiers. Vomiting out the back door of an armored personnel carrier because the anti-nerve agent pills you were ordered to take caused a severe reaction. Thankfully, you might only be vomiting out the back door. There are others who have severe diarrhea and that can be complicated in an armored vehicle travelling across the desert at 35 mph.
Witnessing and experiencing and participating in death all around you: dead soldiers, pieces of dead soldiers; burning soldiers, rotting bodies, wounded animals, rotting animals and smoldering animals. The smoldering ruins of life itself.
Are the women of America really ready for this?
The White House is dragging the US military into a nightmare and the US military is now going to involve the women of America in something men from time immemorial have tried to shelter women from…
War…
If they’re now eligible for combat arms positions of course they should be subject to the draft.
Our they really?
LOL
Friedman’s Law of Unintended Consequences strikes again!
The homos running this country will not get my daughters...let their sorry arses fight (like I did)!
A polity which exposes its women to combat short of absolute necessity is a polity which does not deserve to live.
They want “equal”, give ‘em “equal”.
No great society puts it’s mothers/potential mothers or seed corn into battle. So we are obviously not a great society anymore.
Good one.
Get "high and tight" haircuts, ladies.
Equality.
Maybe I should jump ship. This is very displeasing to me. I didn’t want their stupid version of equality, yet I must pay for it. This doesn’t bode a happy future for me or my sisters.
The Marine Corps fought as hard as it could against gender integration, and was the only one of the four services to oppose integration of all MOS's. It is a testament to the general officers in the Corps that Obama could not even find one senior general who supported this, and so even the new Commandant he just appointed opposed it.
General Neller is playing it smart. The public was not roused enough to support the Marines' objection to forced infantry integration. But what happens when 18 year old girls have to register for the draft, with the potential of being drafted and forced into the infantry?
Talk about a War on Women....These generals have hands the GOP a great issue if only someone has the guts to make it one.
The Left really wants to weaken the military. Instituting a draft forces the need to integrate women more quickly.
During a war massive amounts of women will die as well as whatever men will choose to try to help them. It’s a twofer for the Left. Weakening the military: mission accomplished.
“General Neller is playing it smart. The public was not roused enough to support the Marines objection to forced infantry integration. “
He’s either a low life, or a coward. With no hesitation he would send Marines in to risk death, but he won’t even risk getting relieved of command. Playing it smart = no moral courage.
They don’t get my daughter who I raised as a good woman, not to be living in some squadbay in a mixed unit. I will help her evade any draft and registration and will work to discourage as many girls as I can.
If they come for her, I will dispatch them as I would any kidnapper.
A few loudmouths wanted it, mostly officers. Most young girls have never wanted to be in combat positions. And because a few idiot females wanted it, doesn’t mean good Christian girls who want families and to live as a female should need to suffer.
The peoe who let us down were our political leaders, including every single on of our current crop of candidates. Not a single one of them has even attempted to make this an issue despite multiple opportunities to do so.
Our generals are stuck with civilian control of the military, and the civilian leadership in Congress abdicated it's responsibility.
This is a plot by the leftist-progressives to ENSURE that females never vote for a Republican (’war monger’) president, ever again!
