The measure will be how her men perform.
To all the detractors posting on here, maybe she is actually qualified.
She may be great but, no, don’t put her in combat.
One week out of every four it will be the meanest platoon in the Corps.
We have to at least respect the fact these women VOLUNTEER to do this.
Unlike some “men”.
One can tell their’s something not right about the decision just by looking at the photo. She is not capable of doing all and more than any of those men can do.
Insanity. Mattis could put a stop to Obamas insanity of trying to destroy the military with PC crap. But tough guy Mattis has no intention of getting women out of infantry or Special Operations units. He has no intention of ever carrying out the presidents order to get rid of drag queens. Last I heard they were re-enlisting. Women in combat and homosexuals openly serving was never approved by Congress. It was an Executive Order by Obama and Trump could repeal it today. As long as Obama generals still run things it aint happening. Theyre liberals.
No, she isn’t qualified. She is a female. Young horny men in peak fitness and aggression in a high morale unit see themselves as tough guys.
Her very presence is disruptive in so many ways that only a Marine grunt could explain, and probably wouldn’t be able to. She is disruptive sexually. She is destructive of morale.
When they want to be seen as badasses, it will always be pointed out to them that a girl does what they do. They will never be able to relax without the “me too” BS worries.
And these young agressive male Marines will get judged and evaluated every day...by a chick.
And in my experience, when women pretend to be be men, they lose all common sense and go overboard to show everyone how tough and “male” they are.
I’m guessing you weren’t a grunt.
No matter if she is a marathon runner and excellent shot, she isn’t qualified.
Everything has been watered down. Ranger school was made easier as well.
That platoon is going to get yelled at by a female voice. Total morale buster. And as any grunt can tell you, the other platoons will laugh at them constantly as the chick platoon, and other unprintable things.
“But tough guy Mattis has no intention of getting women out of infantry or Special Operations units. He has no intention of ever carrying out the presidents order to get rid of drag queens. “
Mattis never married or had kids. Just sayin’
“that implies you have so many positive traits”
No, it means you are an Affirmative Action hire and a failure for not making it on your own.
“We have to at least respect the fact these women VOLUNTEER to do this.”
Volunteering for a fashion poser show is easy. She’ll get a cushy desk job soon and the deserving men will be left in the field.
No, we dont.
Good news is she'll be promoted out of platoon leader by being so trendy quickly.
The measure will be how her men perform.

These armchair internet soldiers are able to tell from a story and a photograph how incompetent she is. Apparently women soldiers in Israel, russia and numerous other places have no such infirmities, nor do women in law enforcement seem to be a problem. Its only among the enlisted battalion of old coots whose total talent is telling privates to police the area that women are incompetent. No wonder enlisted are not respected for their intelligence.
“We have to at least respect the fact these women VOLUNTEER to do this.Unlike some men.”
That was a profoundly STUPID statement since she is standing in front of ALL MEN.
I'm thinking it'll be a different "C" word ...
Chesty Puller must be rotating in his grave.
Green Lieutenants do not last long on the battlefield. Bad ones quickly . I would not worry to much about it. My old man used to drive his retired full bird Army Colonel nuts telling him a Marine Gunnery Sargent E7 has more authority than an Army Colonel in combat or otherwise. Oorah!
