In this Aug. 5, 2016 photo, Maj. Shanelle Porter, commanding officer at the Recruiting Station Chicago poses in her office in Des Plaines, Ill. The U.S. Marine Corps is looking for a few more good women. And this time the campaign’s a bit different. Marine recruiters are turning to girls high school sports teams to find candidates who may be able to meet the Corps’ rigorous physical standards _ including for front-line combat jobs now open to women.

Put 10 men and 10 women in a pit.
The last 10 standing get into the Marines.
How many women do you think would be left standing?
