I agree entirely. I believe during the Gulf War of 1991 there was a Navy ship that had a mixed crew and at least a dozen females on the ship ended up pregnant. Hell, the Navy briefly floated the idea of women on submarines. Think about for a moment.
The jealousies and rivalries for the attention of women destroys unit morale. The Navy might be able to put up with that on big surface ships but it could be lethal on small combat units near the front. It’s beyond crazy to be trying it.
Women ARE on subs now.
The USS Acadia, an oiler/tender. It was worse than a dozen.
On 5 September 1990 the ship departed San Diego for the Persian Gulf during Operation Desert Shield and Operation Desert Storm. She was responsible for the first reload of shipboard Tomahawk missiles outside the continental U.S. while pierside in Mina Jebel Ali. The reload recipient was John Paul Jones (DDG-53).
This was the first wartime deployment of a mixed male-female crew on a U.S. Navy combat vessel. Just over one third of her crew were women, which caused some controversy when during the course of the mission 1 in 10 of the female crew either became pregnant or discovered they already were.
