I’m sure those female platoon leaders will be a big hit with units in Germany, i.e. those that spend eight months in the field (i.e. red mud) in Grafenwoehr.

I was TDY for six months in Graf in the 80’s. I was a 12 bravo, we built the M1 tank range there. We worked our asses off. I put down a few at the Metropol as well.

Many units are that way. The navy has the same problems. But yeah, if certain times of the month are rough, the infantry has no time for that crap. It’s a dirty, nasty, rough, tough, and suck-it-up buttercup mentality. And it needs to be to get the job done!
