false argument. You chose the unit with the best training and best weapons, of course.

That's why guns are called "equilizers": because a 70 year old out of shape grandmom can take down a 250 pound athletic thug with a decent gun if she knows how to shoot.

The real problem is more subtle: being in close contact for weeks on end in a small unit. Sexual tension can skyrocket ,,, And that partly depends on behavior (zipper control). Women fought with the infantry in Russia during the second world war and with the Israelis infantry.

The real problem is that this is being pushed for political reasons by feminists who have never been shot at. And women are going to be pressured into "volunteering" while the Pentegon will be pressured into lowering standards to let them serve.

now, for you guys: Here's a nice photo Combat Barbie to keep you happy.
