#1 - for the Marines, you have to between 17 and 38 years of age for you to enlist. Don't know where you got 42 year old enlistees from......except maybe one of the other branches and there's someone that wants to be a military doctor or a chaplain; not the rank and file enlisted.

And while in your mind cost in dollars were down - the cost in blood and lives was exponentially higher and the capability and technical nature was nowhere near what it is today.

Again - Politicrats put women in the military. The number of current women is quite small comparatively.

In fact, the military recruiters are FORCED to seek out women and get them to join; as in there are QUOTAS for women enlistees. And again, the point you ignore - there is not a NEED for them to be there.

Furthermore, I'd rather serve with willing able bodied men than someone forced to be there. I think after four combat tours I can make that assessment.

Weird post, but it reveals a lot of ignorance, and that you aren’t reading the thread.

Other than that, your post was confusing, and kind of rambling, even contradictory.
