None of the remaining eight female candidates going through the Army Ranger School made it out of the first phase of training at Fort Benning, Ga., defense officials told Fox News -- though they scored high enough to try again as early as next week.

The candidates were the first women to train for the elite force as part of a program that began in February.

While they did not do well enough to move on to the next phase of training, an Army Ranger statement said the eight women -- along with 101 men in the same situation -- will be "recycled," meaning they can re-do the training phase in an upcoming Ranger School session.

A total of 60 women were originally slated to participate in Ranger Assessment Phase (RAP), according to the Pentagon in January. The Army Times reported in February that 100 women went into the pre-training phase, and in April, 19 women qualified for the first training phase, known as Darby. Within days, that number was down to eight.

How long will it be if not already that some civilian bureaucrat at DoD calls the Army and asks, WHY didn't any women finish Ranger School? And how long before the standards drop?

[clintonh8r]

War on women! Or something.

[Proud2BeRight]

Watch the left push to change the criteria.

[Jagdgewehr]

Well, I see the problem right away. The standards must be unreasonably high. /s

[Impy]

How about trannies? Any of them make it?

[FreedomPoster]

Surprising no one who gets it.

THIS Can’t BE!!! I see 100 pound women on TV and the movies all the time beating the @#$@$ out of ten guys!! maybe 20!!!

I boxed in late teens and twenties (yeah, I know you know already lol).

But I gained 50 pounds and weighed 250 ten years later. I cant count the number of feminist women in Manhattan offices who challenged me to arm wrestles, weight lifting, and even a BOING MATCH!! lol

with the arm wrestles, I didn’t let them move my arm, but didn’t hurt them I felt NO PRESSURE. like air.

the weight lifting, I benched 260 cause it had been a while. she benched, I think, 45 or 50

The one who wanted to box me, (she also thought Stalin was a great man), for her I just punched a piece of wall off in the elevator lobby and that was enough.

Idiots. all of them.

Idiots. .

“WHY didn’t any women finish Ranger School? “

umm, because they’re women? Just a thought.

[fortheDeclaration]

Yes, the standards are going to have to be dropped if any woman is going to get through.

[tumblindice]

Mebbe they could be `Rangerettes’,
you know:
wear fetching costumes and
hand out Dixie cups of water to
the real candidates?
(I just wanna hep .... )

[max americana]

Nah, the brass will let her pass. They did the same a few days ago to this 32 tear old chick who didn;t pass the FDNY physical test.

Voice Mail on White House answering maching: “If you are calling to remind President Obama that “You told him so!” about women not being able to qualify for Ranger School, please don’t bother. You have already been preceded by 500 other Rangers before you.”

[DeFault User]

Jeff Foxworthy’s aunt Rose could have passed the “pee for distance” requirement.

[max americana]

That’s what Hooter girls are for.

There are daily status briefings on these female students from the RTB Commander up the chain. Take it to the bank.

[NormsRevenge]

I’d gladly buy any of them a drink anytime.. But no arm wrestling.. Or body flings.

[JohnBrowdie]

the rangers should create a cheerleader squad. the wimminfolk can join that. then they could make the men a sammich.

heh.

[armydawg505]

Also the great compliments to the female Army medic who nearly crawled across the finish line after falling on her face just short of the line. What a great soldier we were told!!! Not so great if you were waiting for her to give you medical aid.

[tumblindice]

Hooters. There it is then! Male washouts don't have that option. The only reason these girlies think they can be snake-eaters is some political paper-pusher is urging them on. There are a lot of things they can do in the Army besides a job they obviously can't do.

If the “progressives were truly interested in integrating women in combat roles as a statement of equality they would take a page from the old Soviet Union in WWII. Women functioned as snipers, partisans, tank drivers, medics but generally were kept out of roles that would entail hand to hand combat. But the issue is not the issue with these leftists, the revolution is the issue.
