Poor insanity. Will they lower standards for everyone so women won’t feel offended by men who are better fit?

In the field, the Marines will berth together but will not share tents, Pappa said.

Is it gonna be berth or birth?

"There will be no standards changed for this research," he added.

Okay...Hopefully those standards will be strictly adhered to. *rolling eyes*

if they do it without lowering the standards one iota from what they were when only men were doing it, then all power to them, I’m not gonna tell any of them no. Nor will I tell them that they are being retarded or amoral.

Now let’s see just how many of theme keep to those same standards.

"There will be no standards changed for this research,"

-because the standards are already established to be much lower than any male will be required to attain.

By Day 29 of training, females must pass the curriculum or they are sent to MCT.

Of course, if their 30-day cycle happens to occur during part of their *cough* training, they will of necessity be given sufficient time off to rest and recuperate before continuing on, unlike their male counterparts who are allowed no such equivalent recuperation period.

The female graduates will earn the infantry designation...

We need a new "designation". Or are we going to issue them green berets and SEAL patches as well? How about LRRP, Force Recon, and Delta Force titles as well?

Once again, our nation is sacrificing its security for the sake of misguided and completely unnatural “equality”.

The confirmation briefs, Pappa said, will be "subtle" and without "excess scrutiny" on the female Marines.

If you need to use terms like "subtle" and "without excess scrutiny" to define them...

They are NOT a Marine.

Females... will not be segregated during training, but will be housed separately... (and) In the field, they will berth together but will not share tents...

So the term "segregate" no longer means "segregate"? Will they get their own flower-scented porta-pottys and be provided extra water for their special daily showering needs as well? Non-segregated, of course. But specifically for the 'female' useages thereof.

This is deliberate sabotage of our military.

Ladies and gentleman, an all-male ground fighting force is going to kick the ass of a fighing force that has girls in in it, oh excuse me, women..

The military isn't community college. And yes, "girls," because real women respect the territory of real men and understand when to leave them the hell alone.

Hello? The fastest marathon running men in the world have times twenty minutes faster than the fastest women. The best men can't just swim a little faster, lift a little heavier weight, run a little faster -- they do those things A LOT BETTER than the fastest women athletes.

There are areas where women would be good choice and even a better choice, but they don't involve side-by-side close combat. Women can withstand higher g-forces that men pilots cannot, so they're good in jets. Sorry, that's the way it is. Interestingly, in long-distance open water swimming, women beat men.

Other than that, women should be outta there. This isn't even addressing the real invasion of the ONE TIME boys have to "grow up" in an all-male environment, which I believe they need and have a right to, and the emotional distraction women inevitably cause to men trying to focus on a crucial task at hand.

Political correctness is not only going to be the death of us,... it is also going to be the death of a lot of Marines.

For the life of me, I cannot figure out why politicians and non-elected bureaucrats feel it necessary to force changes to our society that any sane person can see will have no benefit whatsoever, and are, in fact, seriously damaging to our society.

I can only conclude that they are intentionally working to destroy America.

I don’t know what I can do, but I will do everything I can to oppose and ultimately reverse these insanities.

Perhaps, over time, we will realize the error of our ways and we conservatives can return a measure of sanity to our Republic.

Should we fail to do that, we can kiss America good by.

Our Armed Forces were once the envy of the world. The individuals still are. But the leadership is more concerned with political correctness than with the readiness to fight. They are doing irreparable damage to the military.

Oh, it’s a great idea to distract males with females while engaging the enemy. /s

Sweet, I say if they want to play, put them on the door for breaching and let them all pull point on foot patrols. Fully loaded down should be fun to see them waddling around.

This is going to be a gold mine for disability doctors.
