There are some jobs in the military where it doesn’t matter about the strength and the being female. I was a female JAG, the first one at my active duty post. I was successful trying cases.

I can see that female doctors, layers, nurses, supply folks, administrative folks can help free up men for engineers, transportation, infantry, armored cav, MP, etc. Do I think women should be in combat? well, if they pass the SAME tests and meet the SAME standards, then a truism in the military, that all individuals are/should be interchangeable is carried forward. But changing the standards, no.

How about romantic feelings between troops affecting combat decisions? Also one more reason homosexuals should be nowhere near a combat situation.
