So, where is your solid argument? You’ve only proferred up your opinion. And, then chose to ignore the thrust of my post to you, deciding instead to focus on one short sentence. Seems that this is exactly the type of thing that Obozo’s press secretary does on a regular basis.

“So, where is your solid argument?”

Arugment that women shouldn’t be in combat? Yes its opinion from having been there.

Obviously most women don’t have the physical strength that most men have. That is a factor in many cases. The real reason though is the impact it has on discipline and complexity it introduces into operations.

So why should we put women into combat roles? How does it benefit the security of the United States?

The only reason women have been put at risk is to placate the PC crowd. Meanwhile what has been the cost?

I’ve seen it first hand. It damages discipline to put 5 women in a unit of 100 men.
