And rather than turning around this PC nonsense instituted by Obama, mostly late in his second term, Mad Dog seems to be allowing it to continue full speed ahead.
Mattis, Sessions .... barf.
Breathless hyperbole. I agree that SEAL standards ought not be lowered for women, but it’s not the end of the military.
One of the ‘women’ is a tranny so he might make it. After seeing a film on SEAL training, biological females won’t make it, IMO.
No! It's the liberal generals and admirals who agree to destroy the military in return for extra stars on their shoulders.
“A woman will train with other potential officers this summer in hopes of becoming the first female Navy SEAL.”
This is interesting.
Because all normal females fail, the military is pushing the transgender issue. The first “female” that completes the extreme military requirements of any special forces will be trannys.
Our enemies must be laughing. Russia couldn’t be more happy seeing that their covert operations through the twisted obama (and pushed by the sick minded Hillary) is succeeding better than expected.
Put on that cover soldier!
OK, you passed...... Next
It will be instructive to see if these women are hand-waved through like the “lady Rangers.” If not, the pendulum may be moving back toward merit over identity politics.
When they get in the sh-t these women will die along with any poor bastard forced to carry part of their load.
“Just to be fair we’re going to insert a few sailors who have on average 40% less upper body-strength and 33% less lower-body strength than the rest of you. Oh, and they get really bad cramps every four weeks or so. Good luck, Team!”
My bet is this will fade away and not happen.
I reported to Assault Craft Unit One after 19 months on an LST that spent a lot more time in Vietnam than it did in its homeport of Yokosuka. As a fleet OOD and amphib surface warfare officer, I was ready to work hard and make a difference. I ate breakfast when the officer’s mess first opened and rushed to the office before 7AM. At that time I would encounter the latest UDT trainee class double timing back to their area soaked after beginning their day with a swim in full utilities in the south bay of San Diego.
