The Air Force said it will conduct a review to determine whether the use of "airman" is appropriate given the military's push towards full gender equality. [...]
This confirms that a review of job titles, like the one initiated by Navy Secretary Ray Mabus, is soon coming. Mabus' review resulted in an order to the Marine Corps to purge the word "man" from job titles, with the exception that compound words can remain the same. In other words, "infantryman" is acceptable, but "reconnaissance man" is not. That order came as part of the broader initiative to open all combat roles to women. ...

It will magically make the performance differences between the sexes vanish.
Just like General Shinseki’s brainiac idea of giving everyone berets will somehow make everyone more elite.
(Do I need the sarc tag?)
I officially call for the immediate removal from office Mabus and Obama. And for all Marine Officers to recognize this as THE point in time to disobey an order from the revolutionary socialist government.
Mass disobedience can work.
The public and millions of former Marines will stand behind you.
“Airman” is a compound word/title....he says those are exceptions.
More PS $h!+ to wuss icy the military.
Well what will they call them Airheads??
How about they replace ‘man’ with ‘head’?
Certainly would fit for the brass, if not the enlisted / NCOs.
Heh, GMTA...
Oh gag me with a spoon.
This politically correct crap has got to stop! In my dictionary, one of the definitions of man is “humans in general.” An airman is an enlisted human in the air force.
He also has demanded that boot camp is to be integrated with women. It says specifically that co-location of training does not meet this requirement.
He literally wants women and man drill instructors for mixed sex platoons in bootcamp.
This order should be 100% disobeyed. They cannot flush the entire officer corps at once. THIS is the moment.
Co-ed training of that nature only leads to S.H.A.R.P. violations, and other unwanted end results.
Anyone with a brain knows that.
Where no man has gone before......
I don’t know what the hell “sharp” is except on a kabar. But I know what it’ll do to Boot Camp, and to the Marine corps.
This order should be flatly refused en masse.
The senior officers owe this to their men. This is life and death for them. If they lead every officer will stand behind them. Simply refuse it and 100% resign if they push it. In an election year the time is ripe to push back.
Give Trump a chance to say he will reinstate every officer who resigns and stays in shape until inauguration day.
Imagine in the real world (not left-wing fantasyland): the Battle of the Bulge, the Battle of Chosin Reservoir, or the Battle of Ia Drang Valley with about one-third females in the ranks.
Lunacy.
I prefer Wingnuts ...
“Sharp” is sexual harassment, assault, rape, prevention.
It’s one of the army acronym programs set to keep people from being idiots.

Mandatory training, annoying videos, repetitive, and joked about often.
I might suggest “reconnaissance entity”
Interesting. Great, now I feel even older.
That’s okay.
They now, in the army, call PLDC something like “WLC”.
Anoc and bnoc are still the same.
