No - I saw them, but didn't choose to engage them yet, I wanted to say I appreciated the posts I ~was~ seeing. In past years I remember the POV that women didn't belong in the military at all being the only opinion you could find on the forum, and I used to fight them alone sometimes. I'm happy to see that changing. My dad was one of those, he talked me out of trying to go Air Force to fly. Not because I was too girly, but because I was too argumentative. He thought I'd spend my whole service doing punitive pushups or something, lol. I've since found plenty of opinionated people do quite well in the military, they just get smarter. Ah well... too late now. I support all our troops. Men and women.
Personally? I don't LIKE seeing women in combat positions, but if she has a fighter jet, or a big old M1 what's the difference? You could have a scrawny-necked Butter Bar Lieutenant straight out of ROTC in there too, but she'd be more effective right off the bat. ;)
Sorry. Personal prejudice/experience. I've had waaaaaaay too many male ROTC officers "assigned to me" as a Senior NCO. The first order out of the Commander's mouth was always, "No, Son. You just follow her around for a while until you understand what's going on and realize that SHE'S in charge, LOL!
And some people just get bent because they've never had the fun of blowin' up stuff...which is what I miss most, LOL!
My opinion doesn't negate theirs, but since most of the neigh-sayers have zero military experience, I consider the source. :)
