Well I will break the silence then.
Her bravery and reaction upon waking up from her almost life taking wounds has changed my mind about women serving in battle.
And would like to add a few more cents...
The fanatic terrorist had his Allah but I see her taking him down as Christs Divine intervention and she took the call.
I think her name and duty needs to be posted often here and in the News media with out stepping on her privacy.
She'd probably enjoy receiving a "get well" card with that thought on it. I'm sure anything mailed to her c/o Ft. Hood would reach her.
And thanks for piping up!
The argument about women fighting in the front line has never been about whether women can be as brave or shoot as well as their male counterparts (that has been known for a long time), its been about things such as unit cohesiveness (would other men be unduly protective towards female soldiers), the ability to carry a full-grown man and carry him back to safety if he is wounded, the specific hygienic needs of females which could suffer in a situation were logistics are poor, physical stamina etc.....
