Eight out of the twenty women dropped. That's actually a lower percentage than that of the men. There's a part of me that hopes at least one of these women makes it, just to prove that they CAN with all the same requirements the men have. Then there can be no excuse for lowering the standards to accommodate future female entrants.

But there's another part of me hoping they'll all crash and burn and leave the fighting to men, where it belongs.

Pass results[48.3 percent for men and 42.1 percent for women]. These groomed women still have a higher fail rate than the rest of the men. And, yes, Ranger school has been watered down over the years. Even, the basic requirements have changed of late.
