"I’d just like to see 100% of the women combat ready and not bowing out by getting preggers or claiming medical issues. Getting pregnant is the one thing women can do that men cannot."

While in Somalia, there were a number of women who were rotated back due to getting preggers. Rumor had it at the time that they did it on purpose to get out of the deployment. Whether on purpose or not, it's another issue the left does not want to face. A rifle squad being down by several people in a combat zone because women got pregnant is not acceptable in my eyes...

First gulf war, 30% were preggers at any given time and more than half never deployed for one reason or another.
