This is BS. I graduated Infantry School in 91. We had to do ten pullups just to go into the DFAC.

25 mile forced road march, full pack, full ammo load. WTF is going on?

I guess there was no pugil sticks between males and females, no ground fighting, no rifle PT.

This sickens me...

Close friend of ours was in on the initial testing to see if women could make the grade—he said they could not, and the Brass were told to do everything they could to tweak the course to get the women to pass.

Sad consequence of this training for a number of women was infertility due to body stressors. Israelis found the same problem, which is why they pulled their women out of physically demanding combat arms. Guess those with a political agenda of female “equality” don't care much about the real females involved.
