Six more female soldiers have qualified to attend Army Ranger School later this month after passing the same physical fitness standards as men, including six pull-ups, 49 push-ups in two minutes, 59 sit-ups in two minutes and a five-mile run in 40 minutes, Army officials said Wednesday.

Yeah? How many rounds of ammo, grenades AND extra gear were they carrying when they did it?

If their squad mate gets shot, are they going wipe their brow, or carry them back to the aid station?

How many rounds of ammo, grenades AND extra gear were they carrying when they did it?

That will be sorted out at the school.

"About half of the candidates at Ranger School drop out, Jones said, and most of those who fail to
complete the course drop out in the first four days which includes the same physical fitness test as
the RTAC course.

One of the differences between RTAC and Ranger School is the length of the forced march. In RTAC,
it's six miles and in Ranger School it's 12 miles, Jones said.

At Ranger School, there will also be additional tests of physical and mental preparedness, and
numerous simulated combat patrols, Jones said."
