Post your military kicking butt links on this thread, please. Pretty much any of the Marines in Fallujah do it for me.

Damned regressives a think the military is some kind of politically correct social experiment!

That's a 155 towed and each round weighs about 85-90 pounds. How many rounds go down range before the ammo loading babes can't hack it?
In VN I was on an 8" howitzer (both M55 and then M110) and each round weighed 204 pounds. There were many times on the M55 when one Marine had to lift that round onto the tailgate by himself.

It was tough, believe me.
I just don't know many women who could have done that at all, let alone for a sustained fore mission.

The average [1992] female Army recruit is:

4.8 inches shorter, 31.7 pounds lighter has 37.4 fewer pounds of muscle, and 5.7 more pounds of fat than the average male recruit.

She has only 55 percent of the upper-body strength and 72 percent of the lower-body strength

...twice as likely to suffer leg injuries and nearly five times as likely to suffer [stress] fractures as men

What I want to seriously see are videos of women doing combat operations. I am deadly serious. Show an all female artillery unit. Women humping machine gun ammo. I don’t think they exist.

When do women have to start registering with Selective Service?

This is what women in combat will face, an enemy who will not let up or be constrained by pc attitudes. This Marine is teaching a Female Soldier a very important lesson in the physical differences between men and women.

What's driving this push to put women into the combat arms? Promotions for female officers to general’s or admiral's stars. Those ranks all require combat experience and so . . . you figure it out. Notice that there is NO stampede of enlisted females who want to be in combat arms. This is all about fenale officers and their career ambitions.

Note to female officers who want to ‘fast track’ their promotions: combat is an equal opportunity killer and wounder. Combat does not take into account intelligence or ability or skill. If you are at the wrong place and the wrong time, the meeting is either fatal or you're wounded (often with incapacitating results).
