Washington (CNN)The U.S. Navy is preparing to allow women into the ranks of its SEAL teams, the Navy's chief operations officer told Defense News on Tuesday.
"Why shouldn't anybody who can meet these (standards) be accepted? And the answer is, there is no reason," Adm. Jon Greenert told the publication. "So we're on a track to say, 'Hey look, anybody who can meet the gender non-specific standards, then you can become a SEAL.'"
If women can pass the unit's demanding training requirements, Greenert said, they will be allowed into the elite force. Officials did not reveal to Defense News when they plan to allow women to compete for a spot.

Destroying America piecemeal.
Agree!....none!
Agree!....none!
NO F&^&ING WAY...
Oh boy! Those small classes are now going to be filled up with estrogen.
Fools.
There is not a woman in the entire world that could complete BUD/s as it stands. The standards are going to have to be lowered significantly to allow the best of women in. Then the standards will be lowered again to obtain more women. SEALS will become just an expensive line unit
There is more in depth conversation about the introduction of women into BUDS at the Navy Times but I wasn’t allowed to link it.
If a woman actually could pass, though, then I say more power to her and let her be a SEAL...
It’s not just that they can’t pass and standards will be lowered. It’s even the introduction of one woman to BUDS training and the effect it would have on the extremely brutal training they go through. It will instantly change because seeing a woman go through that brutality will change the way the instructors deal out such punishment. This is such a horrible decision in so many ways.
I remember several years ago on one of the Sunday morning political shows there were maybe 6 newsmen and newsbabes discussing the then recent mixing women in with men in basic training.
Everyone but the token conservatice were talking about how the women were going through the exact same training as the men. Baba Wawa made a point of stating it as a settled fact.
Finally the token asked the female general who had been in on the discussion, point blank if they indeed went through the exact same training.
To her credit the general admitted that they did not. I thought Baba Wawa was going to collapse in a conniption fit.
Prima facie evidence of unfitness for command.
>>Fools.
No. Stop thinking like that. Progressives always think long-term. We’re worrying about the 2016 election. They are planning for the 2060 election.
They need to destroy American manhood. Just like they are doing with the Rangers, if they can squeeze one woman through the training, the narrative will be that “women can do anything men can do” and the fact that it was one or two women doesn’t matter. A generation from now when the Boomers and Gen-Xers are dead, we will be a nation of “strong, independent women” (who are dependent on the government) and pajama boys (who are dependent on their strong, independent mothers).
There won’t be enough men left to matter when they herd them all up and move them to walled cities and then to work farms and factories.
Rangers, submarines, and SEALs represent an ideal for boys to aspire to. The Progs want boys to aspire to be weak, coddled princesses. To do this, they have to create the illusion that these men-only worlds are now just another castle conquered by the strong, independent women.
Meeting the physical standards is only a small part of the problem; females in an all male (99.9%, since only a very small number could ever hope to meet these physical standards) combat arms unit would destroy unit cohesion for a variety of reasons.
Women do not belong in combat nor do they belong in any special forces branch. No woman can go through BUDS training. Just like no woman can perform the police or fire fighter training academy without the standards being dumbed down and lowered. There are physical and psychological differences between men and women. This is a fact. Just more weakening of the greatest military in the world.
Please God save us from this evil that has cursed my beloved country. I know we are being punished, but please have mercy on us. Only He can save us.
Ummm... He said if.
Lots of bell ringing going to be going on there...
No, not even if they could pass. That’s sick in the head. Saw photos today of those two ranger women. Shaved heads, the whole deal.
The mark of a depraved nation, or one utterly and desperately against the wall.
They need to be raising kids, and building homes, not pretending to be men.
If women can meet the requirements, then let them in.
Similarly, if a pig can fly, he should be able to get a pilot’s license.
