It’s a debate. Debate is a mind game. Today we can debate the pros and cons. I have no opinion either way today on whether women in combat is appropriate. The only message I have is that when the war begins on our streets and back yards, it won’t matter if females have on a uniform. They will survive or they will die. And folks like you will be relieved that they didn’t wear a uniform.
None of that has anything to do with the military, and what it does.
If war meant being driven to the front and hiding behind a rock with a rifle and an extra magazine, shooting the bad guys then going home and having dinner and a bed, then old men could do it, little old ladies could do it.
Unfortunately that rock is 11,000 feet up there miles away, and you have to carry your 130 pounds of food, water, ammo, weapons, communications, and supplies up there yourself, because you have to carry everything you need to live, yourself, and you can't get by with just a sleeveless muscle shirt and a bandanna.
