Yes, by all means lets get those pesky women out of the military. After all, military men NEVER get violent over civilian women./s

*sigh*

A predictable and sad response.

Why not brush the chip off your shoulder and look at the veracity of what he actually wrote? The juvenile extreme sarcasm bit doesn't fly very far on FR.

You just took this thing in a different direction. So, have you ever been on a ship? What about the prostitution rings that pop up? Have you ever been involved in one or known of them? I have seen these types of things happen on just about every deployment (combat) Ive been on. Women dont belong in combat and they dont belong on ship...minus the hospital ships.

Any truth in this, Navy guys and/or gals?

Sadly yes. Women are invaluable to the service but mixing men and women in the close confines of a ship is just asking for trouble (I've witnessed repeatedly). IMHO Commands (ships/squadrons) should be made up of entirely one gender while shore Commands could stay mixed. Just my 20+ years two cents fwiw.

He stated “among men”. I agree 100%. If, for some as of yet unknown reason, it is necessary to the survival of our nation to put women on ships, make them all female ships. That includes subs.
