Leave the gender thing aside and here is a young woman who found herself and strength she didn't know she had. I'm a freaking recruiting poster here, but I respect her story.

This proves that Marines are indeed smarter than the Sailors. You don't see Marines volunteering to be on SUBs. That's because Marines know; "What goes up must come down but what goes down need not necessarily EVER come back up."

I thought all women went through the San Diego MCRD for Boot Camp?
To: SandRat
I would take the sub!
Difference between planes and boats, in a boat you can SEE what is holding you up.
I got sea legs anyway ^-^

You'll can ask the marines here but the story came directly from the Corps.

Sometimes my room mates make fun of me for it. A little kizami-zuki music on the beak will stop that 8>) Cool story. This young woman has her mind right.

"I thought all women went through the San Diego MCRD for Boot Camp?"
Nope. Unless they where a mirage, I saw female recruits at Parris Island triple timing down the streets. I assure you they where sharp as razor wire, brought a tear to my eye! A full company of them graduated the same time my nephew did.
Set em loose in Iraq and they will terrorize Abu the Schmoo's dopes coming in from Syria. Fill em full of holes!
Maybe most couldn't crank out much more then the three required chin ups but I bet every one could drill a new hole in a scumbags nose bridge at 150 yards.

"I thought all women went through the San Diego MCRD for Boot Camp?" Not unless it's different now than it was in 1970. BAM boot camp was definitely at P.I. Not that they ever let us near them. ";^) That young lady is one tough BAM.
