>>eliminating what he calls “barriers to women’s success in the armed forces.”

They don’t meet the readiness physical challenges yet they are fast tracked for promotion in numbers greater than their composition of the military in total.

What barrier is there to success when they are given special promotions?

And an easy out for avoiding deployment. Get knocked up....

I am not surprised that the abortion rate among women in the military is higher than their civilian counterpart. From what I could tell up until I retired in 2006 young women in the service were uninhibited in having sex with serial multiple partners. The majority of the female EM’s seem to have at least one out of wedlock child and a disproportionate number were mulattoes. Families should strongly discourage their daughters, sisters , nieces from enlisting. I cannot think of a better way to quickly debase a woman's morals.

When a female troop gets into the sack with a male troop she is planning a pregnancy. There are no unplanned pregnancies that are not due to rape.
